Description
This release contains the complete sessions that produced the classic album "Montgomeryland" (Pacific Jazz Records–PJ-5), pairing the Montgomery Brothers (Wes Montgomery on guitar, Monk Montgomery on piano, and Buddy Montgomery on bass) with the extraordinary saxophonists Harold Land and Pony Poindexter.
