LP - Limited Edition 180g Vinyl with two bonus tracks.   

Reunited with his brothers Monk and Buddy on this 1961 Riverside session, this is an essential album in the discography of the late great jazz guitarist Wes Montgomery, as well as in the annuals of great guitar albums generally.

5 STARS Down Beat
"In these days of affected funk, the Montgomery Brothers are a delight in that they have the feel of the earth in their playing without having to exaggerate, pose, or labour at it. But perhaps the most impressive thing about this album is its simple honesty. There is no pretension. Neither is their condescension. This isn't music to con a chick by, music to start a riot by, music to gas musicians by, or music to make a reputation by. It is music to listen to, and it should impress those who know what's happening as well as those persons, backbone of the audience, who merely feel what's happening." (Gene Lees)

AllMusic
"Wes Montgomery was reunited with his brothers Monk and Buddy on this 1961 Riverside session, which also features drummer Bobby Thomas. The guitarist and his brothers are in great form throughout the session. Like most of Wes Montgomery's Riverside recordings, this releaseis an essential part of his discography and is highly recommended." (Ken Dryden)
