This historical CD contains some of guitarist Wes Montgomery's first recordings; in fact only three small-group songs predate these performances. Far Wes music CDs The then-obscure guitarist is heard in two different quintets, both of which include his brothers Buddy (on piano) and Monk (playing electric bass). Far Wes songs The earlier set has Harold Land's tenor as a lead voice while altoist Pony Poindexter takes his place on the later date, Wes's sound was already quite recognizable and he contributes six originals which alternate with Harold Land's "Hymn for Carl" and four standards. --- Scott Yanow, Rovi
