Wes Montgomery & The Poll Winners [Bonus Track]

LP

Jazz Instrument

Personnel: Cannonball Adderley (alto saxophone); Victor Feldman (vibraphone, piano); Wes Montgomery (guitar); Ray Brown (acoustic bass); Louis Hayes (drums). Producers: Orrin Keepnews, Cannonball Adderly. Reissue producers: Orrin Keepnews, Michael Cuscuna. Recorded at Fugazi Hall, San Francisco, California on May 21, 1960; United Recording Studios, Los Angeles, California on June 5, 1960. Originally released on Riverside (9355). Includes liner notes by Orrin Keepnews. Digitally remastered using 20-bit technology by Ron McMaster. The "Poll-Winners" at the time of this recording were Adderley, guitarist Wes Montgomery and bassist Ray Brown; together with Victor Feldman doubling on piano and vibes and drummer Louis Hayes they cut this excellent quintet date. This was the only meeting on records by Adderley and Montgomery and, although not quite a classic encounter, the music (highlighted by "The Chant," "Never Will I Marry" and two takes of "Au Privave") swings hard and is quite enjoyable. ~ Scott Yanow
