Wes Montgomery Wes's Best: The Best Of Wes Montgomery On Resonance LP (Vinyl)
& lt;header & gt; & lt;p & gt; & lt;strong & gt;Compilation On Vinyl LP! & lt;/strong & gt; & lt;/p & gt; & lt;/header & gt; & lt;p & gt;In celebration of its 10-year anniversary, Resonance is launching a series of compilations culled from its vast catalog highlighting both living artists as well as jazz greats of the past. The artwork for the titles in the series is by Takao Fujioka, the acclaimed Japanese artist who is also the chief editor of Way Out West magazine in Japan. Takao's unique and striking artwork has graced countless album covers, including Resonance's 2016 Stan Getz release Moments in Time. & lt;/p & gt; & lt;p & gt;Wes's Best: The Best of Wes Montgomery on Resonance draws from Echoes of Indiana Avenue (2012); In the Beginning (2015); One Night in Indy (2016); Smokin' in Seattle (2017); and Back on Indiana Avenue (2019). A complete track listing for both packages appears below. Back on Indiana Avenue was issued for the first time as limited edition two-LP set on Record Store Day 2019, and 3 tracks from the album appear on Wes's Best. & lt;/p & gt; & lt;p & gt;Montgomery's Smokin' in Seattle, culled from 1966 broadcast dates with pianist Wynton Kelly's trio, was recorded less than a year after 1965's classic Smokin' at the Half Note and received similar kudos from DownBeat, JazzTimes, and NPR. & lt;/p & gt; & lt;p & gt;Wes Montgomery's son Robert writes in Wes's Best, & lt;strong & gt; & quot;It's been a thrill to participate with Resonance Records these last nine years in getting my father's music out to the world... I appreciate the care Resonance always takes to honor my father's memory with each release -- including interviews and essays about the music and finding rare pictures. & quot; & lt;/strong & gt; & lt;/p & gt; & lt;section id= & quot;features & quot; & gt; & lt;h3 & gt;Features & lt;/h3 & gt; & lt;ul & gt; & lt;li & gt;Vinyl LP & lt;/li & gt; & lt;li & gt;Artwork by Takao Fujioka & lt;/li & gt; & lt;/ul & gt; & lt;/section & gt; & lt;section id= & quot;selections & quot; & gt; & lt;h3 & gt;Selections & lt;/h3 & gt; & lt;ol & gt; & lt;li & gt;Jingles (from Smokin' In Seattle) & lt;/li & gt; & lt;li & gt;Mr. Walker (from Back On Indiana Avenue) & lt;/li & gt; & lt;li & gt;West Coast Blues (from Smokin' In Seattle) & lt;/li & gt; & lt;li & gt;Four On Six (from Back On Indiana Avenue) & lt;/li & gt; & lt;li & gt;Once I Loved (O Amor Em Paz) (from Smokin' In Seattle) & lt;/li & gt; & lt;li & gt;Wes' Tune (from In The Beginning) & lt;/li & gt; & lt;li & gt;Li'l Darling (from One Night In Indy) & lt;/li & gt; & lt;li & gt;Going Down To Big Mary's (from In The Beginning) & lt;/li & gt; & lt;li & gt;Diablo's Dance (from Echoes Of Indiana Avenue) & lt;/li & gt; & lt;li & gt;Nica's Dream (from Echoes Of Indiana Avenue) & lt;/li & gt; & lt;li & gt;Give Me The Simple Life (from One Night In Indy) & lt;/li & gt; & lt;li & gt;'Round Midnight (from Back On Indiana Avenue) & lt;/li & gt; & lt;/ol & gt; & lt;/section & gt;

Most tracks are receiving their first official release in this & lt;b & gt;meticulously restored set of original live-to-disk recordings. & lt;br & gt; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; This limited-edition 10LP collection draws upon a wide range of sources, including many newly-discovered tracks unearthed for the first time from archives located all over the world, such as & quot;Trompin & quot; (jukebox-only release for Cinematone, 1939), & quot;What’cha Know Joe & quot; (undocumented radio performance, 1940 — now the earliest known recording of Nat & quot;on the air & quot;), & quot;The Romany Room is Jumpin’ & quot; (private recording, 1941) and & quot;Beautiful Moons Ago & quot; (longer alternate take, 1943). Sessions include Nat at age 17, playing piano in his brother’s band in Chicago, 1936; the first King Cole Trio recordings from 1938, made for radio broadcast only, for Standard Transcriptions; further radio transcription sessions for Standard, Davis & amp; Schwegler, Keystone, plus his first (uncredited) session for MacGregor, with vocalist Anita Boyer; the Ammor Records Session (Spring 1940 – the first commercial-release sessions for the trio), the Decca Recordings (1940-41), the small-label sessions for Excelsior and Premier labels (1943), many previously-uncirculated Armed Forces Radio performances, and, with producer Norman Granz at the helm, early jazz sessions with Lester Young (Granz historic, first session as a producer) and Dexter Gordon, originally released on Philo and Mercury, respectively. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;At the height of his fame in the 1950s and ‘60s, & quot; & lt;/b & gt; he writes, & lt;b & gt; & quot;Nat King Cole (1919-1965) was primarily known as a popular singer — the biggest-selling artist of his generation, no less — who occasionally played piano. By that point, only a few older fans and critics remembered that he had been one of the greatest pianists in the whole history of American music, a true spiritual descendent of Earl ‘Fatha’ Hines and Art Tatum, and himself a huge inspiration for Oscar Peterson, George Shearing, Erroll Garner, and many others. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Beyond Cole’s brilliance at the keyboard, the Resonance set takes in his dazzling work as a vocalist, and includes a new interview with the master pop singer Johnny Mathis, who discusses his debt to and friendship with his great predecessor. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;As a young boy, studying the art of vocalizing, Nat was everything I needed, & quot; & lt;/b & gt; Mathis says. & lt;b & gt; & quot;All I did was listen and learn…And then I want [people] to remember that he also, also, also played the piano. Please, please, please remember that. Even as gigantic as a pianist as he was as a vocalist. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; The majority of the set’s nearly 200 tracks focus on the first work by the King Cole Trio, the seminal combo that put Cole on the map with a swinging combination of jazz, jive, and pop, with an emphasis on his simpatico creative partnership with the trio’s longtime guitarist Oscar Moore. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; In his notes for the collection, guitarist Nick Rossi notes that Moore’s synthesis of such influences as George van Eps, Dick McDonough, Django Reinhardt, and Charlie Christian led to his & lt;b & gt; & quot;groundbreaking style, one which provided a template for how the guitar functions in a modern jazz setting. & quot; & lt;br & gt; & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; Boasting an extensive 60+ page booklet with rare photographs; essays by acclaimed author Will Friedwald and guitarist Nick Rossi (with a special focus on Oscar Moore); interviews and testimonials from Johnny Mathis, Tony Bennett, Quincy Jones, Harry Belafonte, John Pizzarelli, Freddy Cole, Michael Feinstein and many others. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Hittin’ the Ramp features new remastering from original source disks transferred for this set from a number of personal collections and from the archives at University of California – Santa Barbara, The Institute for Jazz Studies at Rutgers University, the the CU Boulder American Music Research Center, and the Library of Congress. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Celebrate Nat King Cole’s centennial in 2019 with this definitive early years multi-disc box set. This is the origin story of a great artist just as he was just & quot;hittin’ the ramp, & quot; launching a distinctive style that would quickly become famous the world over. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;blockquote cite= & quot;www.pastemagazine.com & quot; & gt; What an absolute dream this is. Resonance Records, one of the best historical jazz labels around, embarked on something ambitious with this massive 10-LP collection that brings together every known song that the great Nat King Cole recorded at the outset of his mythical career. This is well before his commercial breakthroughs in the '50s as a vocalist, when he was making his name as one of the finest boogie woogie and stride pianists around. And when he did lend that unmistakable croon to the proceedings, the fluffiness of the music melted away and the sun blazed through, even on the most light-hearted of romps. Every last track in this set is properly treated like a historical document, with a white-gloved care given to the mastering and presentation. It's a remarkable feat that it sounds as good as it does considering the material was recorded well before magnetic tape became the standard. The folks at Cohearent Audio worked from 78s and transcription discs borrowed from various collectors and archives. The material naturally loses a touch of its punch through digital transfer, and a little more when pressed to an analog LP from a non-analog source. What is on these 20 sides of vinyl is still a vital journey into jazz's past, adding to the legends of Cole, his regular guitarist Oscar Moore, and collaborators like Lester Young and Dexter Gordon. These discs also excavate the long-forgotten memories of singers like Juanelda Carter, who dominates an early '39 session with a gorgeous voice that evokes a young Ella Fitzgerald or a more tender Eartha Kitt, and the more astringent tones of Bonnie Lake. Even better, we get to hear Cole at his most mischievous and crocked. He and his band were, primarily, making dance music; tunes to put on and jitterbug your worries away. That became even more vital to the cause in the '40s as the U.S. entered World War II and popular culture responded. Cole recorded tunes both pointed ('Gone With The Draft') and longing ('My Lips Remember Your Kisses'), as well as performances for the Armed Forces Radio Service, complete with shout outs to specific officers and their families. No matter how varied the sound quality is from disc to disc and track to track on this set, Hittin' The Ramp is a monumental achievement and, we hope, just the beginning of a continued look at the career of one of America's greatest artists. & lt;footer & gt; -Robert Ham, Paste Magazine & lt;/footer & gt; & lt;/blockquote & gt; & lt;p & gt; & lt;strong & gt; & quot;The almost 200 tracks here culled (you could almost say in some cases rounded up, hunted down and digitally captured) from a variety of sources are up-tempo swing era gems, the best known of which to casual listeners would be Bobby Troup’s (for a time husband of Julie London) “Route 66”, “Sweet Lorraine” and “Straighten Up and Fly Right”—all later re-recorded for Capitol. & lt;/strong & gt; & lt;/p & gt; & lt;p & gt; & lt;strong & gt; & quot;This worthy centennial tribute demonstrates why King, though better known later as an incredibly successful “pop” singer, deserves to be fully recognized as one of the swing era’s best, most original and influential jazz pianists—listen here and then to Errol Garner, Oscar Peterson and others who followed. & lt;/strong & gt; & lt;/p & gt; & lt;p & gt; & lt;strong & gt; & quot;You can be in the foulest of moods when putting on any one of the set’s 10 LPs. You will walk away uplifted and happy. Any other reaction is simply not possible. The trio’s playing is lockstep and crisply executed and King’s performances are especially noteworthy considering that he’s simultaneously playing and singing. & lt;/strong & gt; & lt;/p & gt; & lt;p & gt; & lt;strong & gt; & quot;Producer Zev Feldman assembled a team of experts in every reissue category required to execute a complex project like this: from the Institute of Jazz Studies at Rutgers University, to the Library of Congress and of course the Nat King Cole estate. Also involved were many Cole collectors, the jazz historian Will Friedwald and the aforementioned Doug Pomeroy whose earlier transfers were relied upon heavily here along with around 75 newly transferred tracks (almost ½ dozen by Pomeroy) from best available sources. & lt;/strong & gt; & lt;/p & gt; & lt;p & gt; & lt;strong & gt; & quot;As your “mind’s ear” imagines how all of this might sound, keep in mind that most of these tracks originated as 33 1/3rpm 16 inch transcription discs—pre-microgroove monophonic vinyl records originally created for the motion picture industry and then adopted for radio. There are a few Armed Forces Radio Service transcription discs that also sound remarkably good. & lt;/strong & gt; & lt;/p & gt; & lt;p & gt; & lt;strong & gt; & quot;Some tracks were only available as 78rpm shellac originals that have been newly transferred. Some are from metal parts that sound superior to pressed records. & lt;/strong & gt; & lt;/p & gt; & lt;p & gt; & lt;strong & gt; & quot;While the “Technical Notes” note surface noise “inherent on all recordings”, for the most part you will not be at all bothered or distracted by any technical issues or additive distortion. And unlike the early digital days' overuse of noise reduction that killed transients, limited high frequency response and space, these new transfers and however the older tracks were processed sound quite “alive”. You might be surprised by the robust bottom end and the clean guitar string attack. While all of the tracks aren’t as immediate, if you start with Disc Ten Side One’s opener “Honey Hush”, you’ll be pushed back in your seat. The very top isn’t there, but the transparency and depth will pull you right in. & lt;/strong & gt; & lt;/p & gt; & lt;p & gt; & lt;strong & gt; & quot;Often with “prequel” type packages you get a familiar artist in his or her formative and less than complete years. Not so with Cole. His artistry was fully formed by his mid 20’s when he began his recording career. Most of the tracks feature Cole with his trio featuring the guitarist Oscar Moore, with whom Cole seemed to be connected at the fingers. Listen in wonder to the two on “Black Spider Stomp”. The sound is also impressive. & lt;/strong & gt; & lt;/p & gt; & lt;p & gt; & lt;strong & gt; & quot;The packaging is satisfying as well, from the box to the five double LP gatefold jackets to the full sized booklet and of course the information contained therein. You’ll enjoy perusing the many black and white photos and especially Will Friedwald’s essay organized as a labelography/time line that ends with a postscript that describes the “Romany Room” tracks and a few others that “…are so rare they weren’t even known to exist before we started work on this package….”. & lt;/strong & gt; & lt;/p & gt; & lt;p & gt; & lt;strong & gt; & quot;...this celebratory limited edition set sure to please in no small part because the 10 LPs were superbly pressed at RTI...Very highly recommended—especially for those who bought and enjoyed the Nat King Cole Story (AAPP 1613-45) box set reissue or any of Analogue Productions’ double 45rpm Capitol Records Nat King Cole Classics (btw: the 9 for sound is taking into account the source material and how well it was mastered. Do not confuse it with a 9 for a more modern recording). & quot; & lt;/strong & gt; - Michael Fremer, analogplanet.com, 10/11 Music, 9/11 Sound! & lt;/p & gt; & lt;blockquote cite= & quot;quote source & quot; & gt; While Resonance Records consistently wows us with ambitious archival releases, the label outdid itself with the new Nat King Cole compilation, Hittin' the Ramp: The Early Years (1936-1943). As you'd expect, the set received the white-glove treatment. Frequently, on the vinyl pressings I listened to, the surface noise that so often transfers over from a low-quality source recording was either nonexistent or so faint that I quickly tuned it out after the first few notes. The sound often surprised me with its clarity and presence, to the point where it gave me goosebumps. Some cuts contain surface noise significant enough to become a distraction, but the historical importance of these extremely rare recordings more than justifies their inclusion in the collection... The best possible source was always used for sound reproduction; for example, six Decca cuts are sourced from metal parts used to create shellac 78s, which sonically beats transferring the music from the actual disc. In true Resonance Records style, keen detective work combined with blind luck helped salvage rare recordings that could easily have become extinct... All the hard work paid off, as the set offers a crash course in early jazz and pop and merging of those two styles... If you weren't a fan of mid-century pop and jazz prior to unboxing Hittin' the Ramp, you will be after listening to it. When recording these songs, the musicians had no idea these performances would survive into the next century or be neatly assembled in a single package that includes documentation of each session. The collection makes it clear that, while still in his late teens and early 20s, Nat King Cole was already in full command of his powers and playing an important role during a remarkably fertile period of music. & lt;footer & gt; -Jeff Wilson, The Absolute Sound, January 2020 & lt;/footer & gt; & lt;/blockquote & gt; & lt;section id= & quot;features & quot; & gt; & lt;h3 & gt;Features & lt;/h3 & gt; & lt;ul & gt; & lt;li & gt;Hand-Numbered, Limited Edition 1st Pressing of 3000 Copies & lt;/li & gt; & lt;li & gt;10LP Box Set & lt;/li & gt; & lt;li & gt;180g Vinyl & lt;/li & gt; & lt;li & gt;Mastered by Matthew Lutthans at Cohearent Audio & lt;/li & gt; & lt;li & gt;Pressed at RTI & lt;/li & gt; & lt;li & gt;Official release in partnership with the Nat King Cole Estate & lt;/li & gt; & lt;li & gt;Meticulous sound restoration of 180+ tracks with 8.5 hours of music & lt;/li & gt; & lt;li & gt;16-page insert & lt;/li & gt; & lt;li & gt;Rare photos & lt;/li & gt; & lt;li & gt;Essays by Will Friedwald & amp; NIck Rossi & lt;/li & gt; & lt;li & gt;Interviews/testimonials by Johnny Mathis, Tony Bennett, Quincy Jones, Freddy Cole, Harry Belafonte, John Pizzarelli & amp; more & lt;/li & gt; & lt;li & gt;Sources include the archives at University of California - Santa Barbara; Institue for Jazz Studies at Rutgers University; the Library of Congress; & amp; many others & lt;/li & gt; & lt;li & gt;Slipcase & lt;/li & gt; & lt;li & gt;Made in USA & lt;/li & gt; & lt;/ul & gt; & lt;/section & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;br & gt; LP 1: & lt;br & gt; Side A: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; 1.

Special Insert with Notes by Todd Barkan, Dan Morgenstern, Howard Mandel, Renee Rosnes & amp; Bill Charlap! & lt;br & gt;Never Before Seen Photos by Keystone Korner Photographer Tom Copi! Keystone Korner Commemorative Postcards! & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Two titans of jazz piano are captured in flight on the new Resonance Records album, Tommy Flanagan & amp; Jaki Byard: The Magic of 2. The Magic of 2 presents a 1982 concert recorded at San Francisco's celebrated Keystone Korner and the third entry in Resonance's Keystone Discoveries series. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & quot;It's a revelation, how well they played together, & quot; says Keystone's owner Todd Barkan, who co-produced the album with Resonance Records' Executive Vice President and General Manager Zev Feldman. & quot;They had quite disparate styles, but they share such an incredibly large vocabulary and frame of reference that it makes their language coherent. They're both referring to the same knowledge and experience of the history of jazz piano. & quot; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; The music is a & quot;gift [from the past that] is both unique and stupendous, & quot; says jazz historian Dan Morgenstern, one of seven annotators in the package's illustrated booklet. & quot;...Alone and especially together, Tommy and Jaki show us what spontaneous creation is all about. & quot; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; When Resonance started working with Barkan, says Feldman, on the lauded 2011 release of Pinnacle, a magnificent 1980 performance by Freddie Hubbard and the first Keystone Discoveries title, & quot;We became aware that the Flanagan-Byard session was something Todd was absolutely passionate about. & quot; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Over the past few years, Resonance has established itself as a home for such notable rediscoveries through acclaimed releases like Hubbard's Pinnacle, Bill Evans's Live at Art D'Lugoff's Top of the Gate, and Wes Montgomery's Echoes of Indiana Avenue. Each of these releases has boasted vivid sound quality and an attention to detail that attests to the label's respect and admiration for the musicians. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & quot;Resonance is trying to become a leader in historical jazz recordings and this totally fits the bill, & quot; Feldman says. & quot;We're putting out this music because we really believe in it-we believe in Jaki Byard, we believe in Tommy Flanagan, and we want to celebrate both of these artists for their contributions to this music. And we also want to celebrate Todd Barkan's vision. & quot; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Five of the eleven tracks find Flanagan and Byard melding their encyclopedic knowledge of jazz piano history in festive fashion: & quot;Scrapple from the Apple, & quot; & quot;Just One of Those Things, & quot; & quot;Satin Doll, & quot; & quot;Our Delight, & quot; and & quot;The Theme. & quot; The album also features six solo pieces, split evenly between the two pianists. All three of Flanagan's three unaccompanied contributions come from the pen of Billy Strayhorn ( & quot;Something to Live For, & quot; & quot;Chelsea Bridge, & quot; & quot;All Day Long & quot;). Byard leads with Stevie Wonder's & quot;Send One Your Love, & quot; and also places his stamp on the Jule Styne standard & quot;Sunday & quot; and Chuck Mangione's & quot;Land of Make Believe. & quot; & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; The Magic of 2 brings the listener back to that night through the loving sound restoration of label president George Klabin and Resonance's engineer Fran Gala. The album comes with a deluxe booklet annotated by Barkan, Feldman, and Morgenstern as well as jazz critic Howard Mandel, pianists Renee Rosnes and Bill Charlap, and Jaki's daughter Diane Byard. Iconic images from the archive of Keystone staff photographer Tom Copi, some being published for the first time, illustrate the booklet, along with work by photographers Brian McMillen and Kathy Sloane. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Limited edition 2-LP set pressed on 180-gram vinyl at 45-RPM by audiophile leaders R.T.I., with a deluxe gatefold, hard-stock jacket by Stoughton Press. Art direction and design was handled by industry veteran Burton Yount (Thelonious Monk Quartet with John Coltrane at Carnegie Hall; Wes Montgomery/ Echoes of Indiana Avenue). Additionally, in this LP edition only is a special commemorative set of Keystone Korner postcards by Tom Copi, along with a retro reproduction of a Keystone Korner punch card (which regular patrons used when attending the club). The LP edition was mastered by Bernie Grundman (Sonny Rollins/Way Out West; Michael Jackson's Thriller). & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; Recorded February 7, 1982 at the legendary Keystone Korner in San Francisco, California. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Mr. Flanagan perfected his own niche, a style beyond style, where the only appropriate comparisons are between his inspired performances and those that are merely characteristic. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - Gary Giddins, author, Visions of Jazz & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt; & quot;Jaki Byard was one of jazz's most idiosyncratic talents, a pianist capable of playing in almost any jazz style as well as a highly original creative voice. & quot; & lt;/b & gt; - W. Royal Stokes, author, critic & amp; jazz historian & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Features: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; • 180 Gram Vinyl Pressed on 12 & quot; Double LP at 45rpm by Record Technology Incorporated (R.T.I.) & lt;br & gt; • Deluxe Hand-Numbered Gatefold by Stoughton Press & lt;br & gt; • Mastered by Bernie Grundman & lt;br & gt; • Limited Edition Press of 1000 & lt;br & gt; • Includes four-panel 12 & quot; x 12 & quot; version of the 23 Page CD Booklet with notes by Todd Barkan, Dan Morgenstern, Howard Mandel, Renee Rosnes, and Bill Charlap. & lt;br & gt; • Never-Before-Seen Photos by Keystone Korner photographer Tom Copi & lt;br & gt; • Includes Historical postcard collection, along with replicated Keystone Korner punch card. & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Musicians: & lt;/b & gt; & lt;br & gt; Tommy Flanagan, piano & lt;br & gt; Jaki Byard, piano & lt;br & gt; & lt;br & gt; & lt;b & gt;Selections: & lt;br & gt; LP1 - Side A: & lt;br & gt; & lt;/b & gt; 1.
