Renowned guitarist Lee Ritenour pays tribute to one of his idols, the great jazz guitar pioneer Wes Montgomery, on 1993's Wes Bound. One of Ritenour s best sellers, this GRAMMY®-nominated album reached #1 on Billboard s Contemporary Jazz chart.Since the beginning of his career, Ritenour has maintained a delicate balance between the individual creative vision and the group dynamic. His first session work was as a teenager, with the Mamas and the Papas, who dubbed him Captain Fingers for demonstrating incredible dexterity. Throughout the next decade, Ritenour became one of the most prolific session guitarists, working with the likes of Steely Dan, Pink Floyd, Aretha Franklin and Quincy Jones. Ritenour's solo work has earned him a GRAMMY Award and 19 GRAMMY nominations. He has recorded more than 40 albums that have yielded 35 chart songs, and he is widely recognized as one of the best guitarists of his generation.Previously out of print, Wes Bound will now be available digitally and on CD for the first time in years.

Tasteful and Masterful
There is just something special about Lee Ritenour and this recording among those recorded by this heralded artist...It is an album that I have wanted to own for years, but just didn't because something else would come up...This recording is a treasure for folks that like cool and swinging. Every number on the album is sure enjoyment and pleasure. Get it...

Lee Ritenour has done it , again !!!! Achieved Excellence !!! I have loved Wes Montgomery since the early 60's !!! And, like Lee, was sad that so many young fans & musicians were not familiar with his fabulous talent !!! He died too young !!! Thank You, Lee , for this great tribute album !!!

I was a huge Wes Montgomery fan when he was alive, very unhappy when he died, and am thrilled that Lee Ritenour is keeping the sound alive; a totally delightful homage to Montgomery. I have now played this CD many times, and have no inclination to not keep it among my all-time favorites.

Magnifique hommage à Wes Montgomery
Lee Ritenour dans cet album de 1993 rendait hommage à une de ses influences majeures, Wes Montgomery. Il avoue même dans les notes du livret être "enivré" en le jouant et en l'écoutant. Cet hommage est magnifique, 7 morceaux sur 11 sont signé par Wes, 3 par Ritenour et même une belle reprise de Waiting in vain de Bob Marley. Lee s'est entouré d'excellents musiciens comme Bob James entre autres aux claviers ou John Patitucci à la basse. J'adore ce guitariste au son unique et je suis un immense fan de Wes, donc impossible de passer à côté de cet album!
