Never-Before-Released Wes Montgomery Recordings from the mid- to late 1950s in Indianapolis, Indiana


Back on Indiana Avenue: The Carroll DeCamp Recordings is a collection of previously-unissued recordings from jazz guitar legend Wes Montgomery captured live and in studio in his hometown of Indianapolis, Indiana in the mid-to-late 1950s by renowned arranger/pianist Carroll DeCamp (Stan Kenton, Les Elgart), who played and hung out with Wes around that time. The deluxe 2CD set includes an extensive booklet with rare photos, essays by jazz scholar Lewis Porter and producer Zev Feldman, interviews with guitar icons George Benson and John Scofield, plus guitarist and Carroll DeCamp's nephew Royce Campbell and saxophonist /educator/publisher Jamey Aebersold. This is the sixth official Resonance release of previously-unissued Wes Montgomery recordings and fills in an important early piece of the jazz great's story. 

The limited-edition, hand-numbered 180-gram 2LP set was mastered by the legendary Bernie Grundman at Bernie Grundman Mastering Studios, pressed at Record Technology Inc. (RTI), and is available exclusively for Record Store Day and includes an 8-page LP insert.
