Hoy, 15 de junio, marca el 58 aniversario del fallecimiento de Wes Montgomery, un guitarrista de jazz estadounidense muy influyente. Montgomery es conocido por su técnica única de tocar las cuerdas con el lado de su pulgar y por su extenso uso de octavas, lo que le dio un sonido distintivo. Nacido en 1923, Montgomery a menudo t…

West Montgomery - Full House
Meeting of some greats here - Montgomery (guitar), joined by the Wynton Kelly Trio (Kelly (piano), Paul Chambers (bass), and Jimmy Cobb (drums)), along with Johnny Griffin (tenor).
Recorded live in 1962 at Tsubo in Berkeley, California—a hot set (supposedly the crowd had to endure some repeats to get a good take, but they've certainly retained their enthusiasm).

Tra i molti eccezionali musicisti che Miles Davis scelse per le sue band, uno dei meno noti è certamente Wynton Kelly. Il pianista è uno specialista del blues, e proprio per questo Davis lo preferì a Bill Evans in uno dei brani di "Kind of Blue".

On This Day: Smokin’ At The Half Note
Wes Montgomery's "Smokin' At The Half Note," recorded in June and September 1965, represents a significant moment in jazz history, showcasing his guitar mastery alongside Wynton Kelly's Trio. Despite misconceptions about its recording venue, the album reflects the transient nature of jazz life, with notable performances and early deat

Když jazz potkal Beatles a zvítězil. #WesMontgomery albem A Day In The Life (1967) dokázal, že jazzová nahrávka může být přístupná širokému publiku, aniž by rezignovala na kvalitu a hloubku.

Wes Montgomery / Wynton Kelly Trio - Smokin' in Seattle: Live at the Penthouse
This came out on CD some time ago, and got a limited vinyl pressing recently in a great gatefold with a booklet full of essays and pictures.
Wes (guitar) and Wynton (piano) are joined by Ron McClure (bass) and Jimmy Cobb (drums).
"Live at the Penthouse” was a radio broadcast in Seattle, and this is taken from those tapes.
The band, needless to say, cooks. Or smokes.
