Wes Montgomery was one of bop's finest guitarists and his 1963 album Boss Guitar shows how expressive a ballad player he could be on the standards "For Heaven's Sake" and "Days of Wine and Roses," but the fast tempo exuberance of "The Trick Bag" (a Montgomery original) serves him equally well. Montgomery swings the blues with pleasing results on "Fried Pies" (another Montgomery original), while Consuelo Velázquez's "Besame Mucho" (which is usually played at a slow ballad tempo) is successfully transformed into medium-tempo Latin jazz.

Heavyweight vinyl produced by Original Jazz Classics (OJC) for Riverside Records in 2015. Remastered by Anne-Marie Suenram at George Horn Mastering, Fantasy Studios.
