You know if Rosebud picks a Jazz show your in for real melodies instead of experimental Jazz. As she has pointed out she's "not into Jazz where it sounds as if every musician on stage is playing a different song" (LOL). Wes Montgomery and The NDR Crew are jamming some great Big Band era influenced Jazz. It's a shame this recording is only 30 minutes long because this is a great rehearsal. That's right this was actually the rehearsal for the show! Wes Montgomery's smooth playing style had to be a big influence on Pat Metheny and countless others in Jazz today.
