Default Jimmy And Wes

their album is great, with them eating the hotdog on the front. and for those of you who dont know, Jimmy Smith is one of the greatest jazz organ players of his time, and Wes Montgomery is another outstanding jazz guitarist.

Sorry man, I should have responded to this sooner. Wes Montgomery is one of my favorite guitarist and probably has done more to influence my own style than any other musician. I love Jimmy Smith too, and all the other B3 greats (Mcgriff, Calgato , Bryard...etc), but it blew my mind to read your post and find that the two did an album together. It has to be amazing!!!!!!!!

i love Jimmy Smith and Wes Monty - Jimmy Smith has got to be the greatest jazz organist ever and Wes, his style of playing is unparalelled although Grant Green is good too.

Jimmy Smith sounds good from what Boris has told me. I got Wes Montgomery's Fingerpickin'. The cover is quite amusing as it shows him holding a double bass instead of a guitar!
