A remarkably intuitive, self-taught player who didn't purchase his own first guitar until he was 20 years old, Montgomery exuded an uncanny sense of naturalness and soulfulness in every aspect of his playing that every jazz guitarist since has aspired to.

This 11-song collection features Montgomery at his creative peak in recordings that stretch from 1959 to 1963, including his own composition Four on Six and his rousing cover of Carl Perkins' Groove Yard.

None available at present.
