Mastered by George Marino at Sterling Sound
“…these are all truly classic Verve titles that you simply don’t want to miss…most importantly, the sound of these reissues is nothing short of astounding. Particularly the early Billie and Ella mono records are incredible treasures of sonic beauty. I’d definitely ask Santa for the whole set, or, if you want to cherry pick, the most classic titles. Whatever you decide, you owe yourself at least a half dozen!” Winner of a 2012 Positive Feedback Online Writers’ Choice Award – Danny Kaey, Positive Feedback Online, November/December 2011

A legendary session recorded at a New York nightclub (and augmented by a few tracks recorded in the studio), Smokin’ At The Half Note captures Wes Montgomery at the height of his improvisational powers, backed by a sympathetic and hard-driving rhythm section. Many consider it the best performance on record by one of the most inventive guitarists in jazz history.
