WES MONTGOMERY's "The Incredible Jazz Guitar" is a swinging, scintillating masterpiece that showcases the legendary guitarist at the top of his game. From the moment the needle hits the groove, Montgomery's nimble fingers dance across the fretboard, weaving intricate melodies that will leave you breathless.

His smooth, fluid playing is accompanied by a tight rhythm section that keeps the groove alive and kicking. It's a thrilling ride from start to finish, with each track offering something new and exciting.

Montgomery's take on the jazz standard "D-Natural Blues" is a soulful, bluesy romp that highlights his deep connection to the roots of the genre. His laid-back, effortless style is a joy to listen to, and his subtle nuances and dynamic range are a testament to his mastery of the instrument.

But it's on tracks like "Four on Six" and "West Coast Blues" that Montgomery truly shines, showcasing his unparalleled skill and creativity as a guitarist. The interplay between Montgomery and his bandmates is electric, with each musician pushing the boundaries of the genre and creating something truly special.

Overall, "The Incredible Jazz Guitar" is a must-listen for any fan of jazz music. Wes Montgomery's timeless talent and unparalleled artistry shine through on every track, making this album a true gem in the world of jazz. Don't miss out on this incredible journey into the heart of swing and soul.
