Review:
One of the greatest jazz guitarists ever. Seriously. I don't know too many artists but if they're anything like Wes Montgomery, they're kickass. Wes always has the most interesting jazz riffs in all his songs, covers or original material. This, I believe, is his first debut LP way back in the 50's, it's fantastic and encompasses a lot of aspects of jazz from slow ballads to the fast bop. "Polka Dots and Moonbeams" is probably the sweetest track, followed by "In Your Own Sweet Way". Recommended for anybody looking for an introduction to jazz, cause we all can't "get" Coltrane or Davis all the time.
