Resonance Records, the leading archival jazz specialists, continues their recently inaugurated series of samplers, the Takao Fujioka Collection, on June 21 with a pair of packages devoted to material from their bestselling, award-winning and previously unreleased recordings by pianist Bill Evans and guitarist Wes Montgomery.
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.
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.
All of Resonance’s albums devoted to Evans and Montgomery have been released with the full cooperation of the musicians’ estates. Zev Feldman, Resonance co-president and producer, says, “It’s been an honor to work so closely with Evan and Robert of the Evans and Montgomery estates over the course of the last 9 years to bring these incredible, unearthed treasures to light. These artists are really in the bedrock of our label, and it’s been remarkable to see the kind of excitement our releases generate in the press and with our fans.”
Wes Montgomery’s son Robert writes in Wes’s Best, “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.”
Like Resonance’s first two compilations in the Takao Fujioka Collection – Sing a Song of Jazz: The Best of Vocal Jazz on Resonance and Jazz Piano Panorama: The Best of Piano Jazz on Resonance, released in May – the newly released Evans and Montgomery samplers features the eye-catching artwork and design of Fujioka, editor of the Japanese jazz journal Way Out West; he supplied the cover art for Resonance’s 2016 Stan Getz release Moments in Time.

Resonance Records, los principales especialistas en jazz de archivo, continúa su serie de samplers recientemente inaugurada, la Takao Fujioka Collection, el 21 de junio con un par de paquetes dedicados al material de sus grabaciones más vendidas, premiadas e inéditas por el pianista Bill Evans y el guitarrista Wes Montgomery.
Wes's Best: The Best of Wes Montgomery on Resonance se basa en Echoes of Indiana Avenue (2012); In the Beginning (2015); One Night in Indy (2016); Smokin' in Seattle (2017); y Back on Indiana Avenue (2019). A continuación se muestra una lista completa de las canciones de ambos paquetes. Back on Indiana Avenue fue lanzado por primera vez como una edición limitada de dos LPs en el Día de la Tienda de Récords 2019, y 3 temas del álbum aparecen en Wes's Best.
Montgomery's Smokin' en Seattle, seleccionado a partir de 1966 con el trío del pianista Wynton Kelly, fue grabado menos de un año después del clásico Smokin' at the Half Note de 1965 y recibió elogios similares de DownBeat, JazzTimes y NPR.
Todos los álbumes de Resonance dedicados a Evans y Montgomery han sido editados con la plena colaboración de los patrimonios de los músicos. Zev Feldman, copresidente y productor de Resonance, dice: "Ha sido un honor trabajar tan estrechamente con Evan y Robert de las fincas de Evans y Montgomery a lo largo de los últimos 9 años para sacar a la luz estos increíbles tesoros desenterrados. Estos artistas están realmente en la base de nuestro sello, y ha sido notable ver el tipo de emoción que nuestros lanzamientos generan en la prensa y con nuestros fans".
El hijo de Wes Montgomery, Robert, escribe en Wes's Best: "Ha sido emocionante participar con Resonance Records estos últimos nueve años en llevar la música de mi padre al mundo... Aprecio el cuidado que Resonance siempre tiene para honrar la memoria de mi padre con cada lanzamiento - incluyendo entrevistas y ensayos sobre la música y la búsqueda de imágenes raras".
Como las dos primeras compilaciones de Resonance en la colección Takao Fujioka - Sing a Song of Jazz: The Best of Vocal Jazz on Resonance y Jazz Piano Panorama: The Best of Piano Jazz on Resonance, publicado en mayo - el recién lanzado Evans y Montgomery samplers presenta la llamativa obra de arte y diseño de Fujioka, editor de la revista japonesa de jazz Way Out West; él suministró el arte de la portada para el lanzamiento de Moments in Time de Resonance en 2016 de Stan Getz.
