The jazz archaeologists at Resonance Records keep on coming up with fantastic relics. Their latest release is a heretofore unknown and unreleased live gig from January 1959, featuring the great guitarist Wes Montgomery sitting in with pianist Eddie Higgins' trio. It's not a professional recording, but the casual, after-hours vibe is absolutely perfect, and all things considered the sound quality is close to miraculous.
The music is a treat, too; apparently Montgomery and Higgins didn't play together all that much, but you wouldn't know it from the performances here, as they elegantly cruise . . .
