Documentary: Wes Montgomery Turns 100

Today is the centenary of guitarist Wes Montgomery's birth. Born in 1923, he would die in 1968 at age 45. What better way to celebrate the impact Montgomery has had on the jazz guitar than with a new documentary directed by Kevin Finch. To view Wes Bound: The Genius of Wes Montgomery, you must go here. I cannot embed the video.

The best I can do is give you five YouTube clips.
