Review by Wink Page
Jazz History by Wes Montgomery is an exceptional album that showcases the talent and creativity of one of the greatest jazz guitarists of all time. This album is a compilation of some of Montgomery's most iconic tracks that have defined his legacy in the world of jazz.
The album features a combination of classic jazz standards and original compositions, all of which are flawlessly executed by Montgomery and his band. His unique style of playing the guitar, characterized by his use of octaves and chord melody, is evident throughout the album and is a testament to his innovative approach to jazz music.
One of the standout tracks on the album is "West Coast Blues," a classic blues tune that Montgomery infuses with his signature sound. The track showcases his ability to improvise and create a dynamic sound that is both soulful and complex.
Another notable track is "Four on Six," a lively and upbeat tune that highlights Montgomery's technical prowess on the guitar. The track features a memorable guitar solo that is both intricate and captivating.
