Wes Montgomery - Boss Guitar - 180g Vinyl LP
Original Jazz Classics Series - pre-order now
2025
(AAA) Lacquers Cut from the Original Master Tapes by Kevin Gray! Pressed at RTI
Originally released in 1963. Towards the end of his Bop period, legendary jazz guitarist Wes Montgomery reunited with fellow Hoosier, and Hammond B-3 master, Melvin Rhyne on several sessions. The first of that series was Boss Guitar, featuring the outstanding Jimmy Cobb on drums. Highlights off the LP include a cooking 6/8 version of "Besame Mucho," the funky Montgomery blues "Fried Pies," and Montgomery's dazzling showpiece "The Trick Bag." a classic Bop album that holds it's own over time.
This new edition of the album is released as part of the Original Jazz Classics Series on 180-gram vinyl pressed at RTI with all-analog mastering from the original tapes at Cohearent Audio and a Stoughton Tip-On Jacket.
