Customer Reviews:
pleasant but for reservations noted below.......2004-07-18
I can't believe any listener in his right mind would want to hear two versions of the same tune in immediate succession. I'm deducting stars for the outtakes; we aren't paying by the note, especially not for the same notes repeated.
I found "I've Grown Accustomed to Her Face" fairly tedious; Montgomery doesn't seem to be much of a "chord melody" player. Otherwise this is a pleasant (but hardly earth-shattering) recording, and the second half of Montgomery's solo on the title tune has a nice groove to it. Elsewhere saxophonist Griffin steals the show.
Incredible guitar!.......2004-07-13
The sound is great, as with all the releases in the 20 bit series, you have to get this one instead of the older version. Wes shares the spotlight with Griffin in most tracks, but there is plenty of guitar here to make your jaw drop to the floor. Wes later recorded for Verve, and made a bunch of commercial albums on which he was preety much instructed on what and how to play. But not here. This is live and shows clearly that Wes was the best jazz guitar player since Charlie Christian.
A Landmark! On Par With "Kind of Blue".......2002-11-07
The band is smokin'! Excellent interaction among the players. All involved are clearly feeling it on this very special live show, with Wes leading the way. This is clearly his finest recording. Johnny Griffin, Wynton Kelly (he of the "oh so sweet" piano soloing on Miles' "Freddie Freeloader"), Paul Chambers, and Jimmy Cobb are all having sublime nights as well. What fun, and clearly on of the finest jazz recordings of all time. A must for all collections, jazz or otherwise.
