Good-luck finding this highly sought after ORIGINAL FIRST U.S PRESSING OF Wes Montgomery's  on Riverside!--and most of us may know of just how many albums the prolific Montgomery eventually recorded--this early one in his career (1961) includes four original compositions as well as the hard-swinging version of Sonny Rollins' "Airegin" on Side 1;--also, when you hear Montgomery's 'WEST COAST BLUES" on Side 2, well you'll know who the real WM truly is.........and this is the last and final copy of this original record you will ever need because of its stunningly preserved condition--please read on...

Despite being a hard to find LP in and of itself, to find one in near mint condition is exceptional.
