So Much Guitar!

Limited 180-gram virgin vinyl edition - complete album + bonus track. So Much Guitar! marked Wes Montgomery's first recording with pianist Hank Jones and Ron Carter, the latter of whom collaborated with Montgomery on three further albums. Included among the nine tracks is the classic "Twisted Blues" , and a solo guitar rendition of "While We're Young"."This is one of Wes Montgomery's finest recordings, a Riverside date that showcases the influential guitarist in a quintet with pianist Hank Jones, bassist Ron Carter, drummer Lex Humphries, and the congas of Ray Barretto. All eight performances are memorable in their own way, with 'Cottontail', 'I'm Just a Lucky So and So', and a brief unaccompanied 'While We're Young' being high points."- AllMusic (Scott Yanow), 4.5 STARS
