The Wes Montgomery Trio

The Wes Montgomery Trio (a.k.a. A Dynamic New Sound) is an album by the American jazz guitarist Wes Montgomery, released in 1960. The track "Missile Blues" is named after the club in Indianapolis where Montgomery played before moving to New York City to record for Riverside. At this club, he met Riverside's record producer Orrin Keepnews. The album was reissued on the Original Jazz Classics label.

Reception
In his AllMusic review, music critic Ronnie D. Lankford, Jr. wrote: "The only drawback is that the accompaniment, which though solid, doesn't seem to perfectly match his guitar style... Montgomery's performance... was a revolution in technique and execution. Suddenly, out of nowhere, a 36-year-old guitarist re-imagines the jazz guitar solo."
