Description
The sly octave run in Four on Six lands with that unmistakable thumbed attack, and you can practically feel the band give him a little extra floor to dance on. Wes Montgomery’s Wes’s Best: The Best Of Wes Montgomery On Resonance pulls from the label’s deep archive to map his journey from Indianapolis roots to the fiery Seattle dates with the Wynton Kelly Trio. Jingles pops with grit and charm, while West Coast Blues swings with relaxed authority.
Pressed as an LP, this edition opens up the room so you hear more air around the trio, and cymbals decay cleanly without smearing. Sequencing is smart too, giving you a swift tour of early club energy and later, big-stage poise.
For placement at home, file it next to Grant Green and your core 60s hard bop shelf. If you’re building a focused Wes section, this does the curating for you without sanding off the edges that make these performances feel alive. You can buy Wes Montgomery records online with us if you prefer to skip the queue.
Notes, photos and Resonance’s usual care make it a tidy way into the catalogue, or a solid companion to the individual live sets if you already went deep. A compilation, yes, but not a perfunctory one; it’s a narrative.
Available to order online or in our Melbourne record store, your crate needs this one.
