Very few can push your jazz button ( hard ) the way Montgomery could. With his unique style of playing and easy laid back manner he broke on the scene and made cats sit up and take notice quick. There are many Wes tunes that are my favorite, to many to name now but "Full House is in the top fifty. Montgomery blows though this track like a preacher at a old time revival meeting bringing fire with each cord played. Deacon Wynton Kelly in the amen corner baptizing all in ear shot with his wicked piano while Paul Chambers is ushering in all listeners with his spirited bass work. Full House is a Wes tune one never tires of hearing. Can I get an amen on that?

Harold Mabern is something of a quiet legend. He belongs in the absolute top rank of musicians who have played modern jazz. He was every bit the equal and an ideal foil for Wes Montgomery during the 1965 tour. Mabes, as he is called, is still alive and well, and tours with tenor sax great Eric Alexander. I have caught him live a few times in recent years, and Mabern hasn't lost a beat. He's still amazing. A very fine gentleman, too.

Watch closely to see Wes playing the short bass notes in tandem with Arthur the second time through the head, the second one fretted by his left thumb quickly wrapping around the neck. That small series of trills Wes plays @5:59 reminds me of Coltrane's live recordings of "My Favorite Things". With Harold Mabern, piano, bassist Arthur Harper and drummer Jimmy Lovelace. (BBC Jazz 625).

When I was in my early 20's I bought his album Full House. His play was shocking to the ear which was accustomed to rock/blues guitar. Esp. his three-stage-rocket-like solos (single notes, octaves & block chords) were simply mind blowing. Wes Montgomery has never ceased to amaze me to this day.
@GeorgiaBoy1961

@ Jim Blues: Wes had a similar effect on me when I first heard him on "Smoking at the Half Note," the very first real jazz album I ever owned and to this day, an absolute favorite - something I really treasure. Wes' approach was unique and so musical. I believe that it came from listening not just to individual musicians and small groups, but big bands. He toured with Lionel Hampton for a while in the late 1940s, as you may know. When he builds to a climactic peak soloing in block chords, it sounds like the "shout chorus" being played by a big band. You can hear it on his 1966 track, "Sundown," a bluesy number from the album "California Dreaming." On it, Wes plays alone with the rhythm section on part of the tune, and is answered late in the form - where he would usually play block chords - by the full horn section of the big band. Everything Wes did was so hip, so musical, and so musically-logical, but he made it all sound effortless, as the great ones always do. The man was an absolute genius.

The way Wes Montgomery plays is so satisfying in many ways. Melodic, with runs and chords and interesting sounding notes. Sadly, if he played today, many would say he does it wrong by playing with his thumb, his guitar tilted back to see the fretboard and is he muting properly, etc. And all these " wrong" ways = musical jazz guitar genius. There's a lesson there. No innovation= stagnation.

A lot of those early jazz guitar geniuses - like Wes, Joe P, Charlie C, Django - we must realize that they essentially had no GUITARISTS on their level to very closely base their technique and musical sensibilities. They all just seem to HAVE it - the brain, heart and feel. I mean, quality electric amps had barely been around long - certainly not for Christian. But Wes is my favorite - it's his feel, swing, points of emphasis, octaves - he's the whole package!

I'd really like to know, I've never heard a pianist play something like that before. To me, it sounds like he was playing octaves with both hands, and perhaps some chromatic notes were played in between though this is just my estimate. In most cases, when you hear that type of timbre from a piano, there must be chromatics involved or something to that effect.
