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).

"Tequila" è un album commerciale, non certo tra i più importanti di Claus Ogerman, che si limita a scrivere alcune parti di archi. Però l'arrangiamento di questa ninna nanna è molto ben fatto e valorizza la chitarra di Wes Montgomery

I must admit I've never seen CD's that were not packaged in plastic cases or cheap paper sleeves. These Japanese King Records releases are gorgeous. Very tactile just more like shrunk gatefold albums.
