Reviews :
“The late jazz guitarist Wes Montgomery had an odd, distinct way of playing the guitar. Eschewing the standard plectrum, he strummed chords and picked single notes and trademark octaves with only his thumb. The other four fingers of his right hand rested on his Gibson L5 guitar while the thumb did all the work. It may seem like a gimmick that looked impressive but compromised his playing, but that couldn’t be further from the truth, as the fleshy part of Montgomery’s thumb unleashed some of the most gorgeous, sublime guitar playing of his time, influencing countless jazz guitarists in ensuing decades. (...)
Zig-zagging between different styles and moods, Montgomery and his band are back to a more frenetic pace with Dizzy Gillespie and Frank Paparelli’s lightning-fast “Blue’n’Boogie”. The musicians are locked in place as a fully charged, cohesive unit highlighted by some of Kelly’s best playing and typically expert thumb-picking from Montgomery.
The band keep the quick pace alive with the fast, exotic “Cariba”. Piano, saxophone, and guitar solos are traded off in succession, and Montgomery’s playing slowly builds in intensity, with single notes soon turning into his trademark octaves. Johnny Mercer and Harold Arlen’s “Come Rain or Come Shine” maintains a bright, jazzy tempo while the pace picks up again on the smooth, caffeinated Montgomery original, “S.O.S.” " Pop Matters Review by Chris Ingalls
