Editor's info:
The Montgomery Brothers were one of the finest sibling-based groups in jazz, featuring the inimitable guitarist Wes, pianist and vibraphonist Monk, and bassist Buddy. However, they weren't the first example of highly talented brothers taking a prominent role in the jazz world. Other well known jazz families include brothers Johnny (clarinet and alto sax) and Baby Dodds (drums); brothers Nat (cornet) and Julian "Cannonball" Adderley (alto sax); brothers Jimmy (tenor sax), Percy (bass) and Albert "Tootie" Heath (drums), and the Jones brothers, with Hank (piano), Elvin (drums) and Thad (trumpet). Wes Montgomery (1925-1968) is now widely recognized as one of the most revered guitarists in jazz history. The Montgomery Brothers was Wes' sixth album with his brothers, following The Montgomery Brothers and Five Others (1957), Montgomery Land (1958), Kismet (1958), A Good Git Together (1959 -with singer Jon Hendricks as the leader), and Percussion Unabridged (ca.1959 -a percussion album with nearly no solos by the Montgomery Bros). Wes made numerous recordings as a soloist with different groups (an example of which is our bonus album The Wes Montgomery Trio, which finds him with organist Melvin Rhyne and drummer Paul Parker), and at various stages he fronted his own quartet. This didn't prevent him from finding the time to work with his brothers when he could. The Montgomery brothers would record various albums together through 1961 (their last preserved collaboration consists of an LP they made with pianist George Shearing).

The complete classic album The Montgomery Brothers (Fantasy 3308). Featuring Wes with his brothers Buddy and Monk, and drummer Lawrence Marable. As a bonus, Wes' complete LP The Wes Montgomery Trio (Riverside 1156), presenting the leader in a trio format with organist Melvin Rhyne and drummer Paul Parker, which includes another version of Wes' "Jingles"
Includes 16-page booklet

****Original Down Beat review: The Wes Montgomery Trio
"It seems unquestionable that Montgomery is the very best guitarist to arrive on the scene in a decade and may very well end up ranking with all of the great players on his instrument. He has an electric quality, that special gift of making whatever he does come alive, that marks the true artist. On the basis of Montgomery's work this would be a five-star LP. Both the drummer and organist are good and both are promising." (Ralph J. Gleason)

All Music Guide:
"With Wes on guitar, Monk on bass, and Buddy on piano (Lawrence Marable fills out the quartet on drums), this is a solid boppish set of five lengthy tracks, divided between both originals (penned by either Wes or Buddy) and standards. 'June in January' is a particularly good vehicle for Wes' fluid single-note runs, while 'D-Natural Blues' is one of his more enduring and good-natured compositions from the period." (Richie Unterberger)
