Wes Montgomery the legendary titan who inspired the legendary Pat Metheny

Ahh, got it....Patients grasshopper.....

Would love to know more about this production....Obviously a professional multi perspective done in the recording studio. Anyone provide any info? Who’re the other musicians?

who's the pianist

Wes seems soooo sweet hahaha I love him, what a player also

Another cool thing. In 1965 Wes was cool. He wasn't racist. In that turmoil in what was going on in 65 he shared indiscriminately with whites. I play jazz guitar., well yeah black music coming from Black however want to put it. This black guy said to me b 4 he even asked me my. Name" let me tell you first thing jazz is the black man's music" I said "I know" Dude just play. Just enjoy ourselves I don't care if didn't originate from whites. I'm white Italian American. Native Italians in Italy. They love jazz Here Wes is cool in his career as so many great black players are so cool playing with whites in jazz. I wish Wes was here with us to watch and listen to such enjoyable Guitar

Now

Wes would come home downtrodden from work but taught himself guitar by listening to Charlie Christian and of the sorts. Since it was late in the evening, Wes would use his thumb to not wake up the neighbors.

Thanks a million! I love Wes! Cheers!

I like how Wes was saying his guitar is always going out of tune. That's a hollow-body guitar for ya, always being affected by humidity.

Anyone know the beat at 14:30?

I just read that he developed the thumb picking technique so he could play softly at home after work without waking his family or neighbors. Amazing!

Pure genius

Should be in the top 5 of greatest guitar players of all time. Pure natural talent I think his peak was when he played with Jimmy Smith

Merci bcp Pour cet émouvant témoignage qui a tant d’images d’un autre age❤

Yes was looking for this version sounds more raw thanks for the upload

5:29 - calling tune 10:49 - bass solo = talking time 14:47 - teaching pianist a new tune

New gregory to my ears yes ❤

Excellent!!!!!!

Groovy 👶

He can do with his thumb what most people could never do with four hands

the subtle smile and stare at the camera after a small misplay at 1:10:40 is so heartwarming

They don’t rhyme like dat no more. Das REAL Hip hop!

... have known WES since 1965 & I was 12, thru my older Nephew - George Domboka - in the then Rhodesia, now Zimbabwe ... he's the greatest ! Listen to SAY A LITTLE PRAYER FOR YOU & you will know what I mean !

Please share a session of WES playing 'SAY A LITTLE PRAYER FOR YOU' - this was amazing on CD - please share the Video. *Charles M. Manyawu - BOTSWANA.

Now that is free and easy jazz...coming at you on 105 on your FM dial ...down my L.A. way...the Lighthouse...the IF club

(almost) every comment I see is full of positivity, joy, appreciation. the power of music made for the people with real heart, bringing people together across generations

My dad played a lot of Wes when I was a boy in the 60s. I loved his tone. All in the thumb. The sweet Gibson doesn't hurt either. 😀

🔥🔥🔥

Qu’a t’il fait sinik ??

This was the first KZbin video I ever watched on the platform when it first launched way back. This is gold

Wes is so 👍 to listen to and watch. Especially his octave usage technique known for.
