Movin' – The Complete Verve Recordings (Movin Wes/Bumpin/Smokin At The Half Note/Goin Out Of My Head/Tequila/lots more!) (5CD set)

Out Of Stock

An amazing little collection – the complete Wes Montgomery recordings for Verve – a tremendous tribute to one of the greatest guitarists ever, caught in a variety of wonderful settings – packaged in a cool limited set, with lots of bonus tracks too! The music here was pivotal to Wes' all-too-short career – and it transported him from small group soloist to jazz guitar powerhouse – thanks to some impeccable production from Creed Taylor, and keen knowledge from the Verve team – who helped give Montgomery a number of different settings in which to display his talents! The music features small group sounds, some amazing larger group recordings, and a few key sessions with organist Jimmy Smith – a full 8 albums of material, plus a huuuuuge amount of bonus tracks from the sessions – all done up in one of those cool Hip-O Select 7" book-styled packages, complete with copious notes. In addition to the bonus material, you'll get the full tracks from the albums Movin Wes, Bumpin, Smokin At The Half Note, Goin Out Of My Head, Tequila, California Dreaming, Jimmy & Wes The Dynamic Duo, and Further Adventures Of Jimmy Smith & Wes Montgomery. 91 tracks in all – and one hell of a beautiful package!
