Notes: Milt
Jackson, of Modern Jazz Quartet fame, is known as a tough judge
of musical character. This said he praises the guitar of Wes on
these sessions and of his whole body of work. Rooted in Milt's
love of blues structures and backed by a crack trio of piano, bass
and drums the guys work out some amazing charts here. A very nice
pairing of the vibes and guitar with some fine back and forth between
the soloists. This isn't a session arranged by an outside producer
full of wanna be pop material, this is the real stuff. Some guys,
their instruments and a whole lot of feeling. The smiles on the
cover seem genuine and as authentic as the music is inside Id be
willing to bet that they're authentic. A great record.
