Buddy Montgomery - Live at Maybeck Recital Hall, Vol.15 '1991

Tracks list

	The sole surviving musical Montgomery brother goes it alone for the microphones
at Maybeck, demonstrating that he has more than enough of the solid musicianship
and abundant technique that seems to go with the territory in this series. The
only hangup is that Montgomerys solo ruminations, however accomplished, arent
all that compelling here. The usual blend of idioms -- bop-based with frequent
immersions in earlier styles, mostly stride and classical derivations -- are
lavished upon a collection of standards; The Night Has a Thousand Eyes has an
intriguing alternate re-harmonization of the tune. However, it is Montgomerys
own tunes, Who Cares and Money Blues, that deliver something resembling a
personal signature, getting into some down-home bluesy rhetoric. Of course
everything is superbly recorded.
