In 2019, I posted on YouTube clips of students working out on transcriptions by guitarist Barry Galbraith. In 2018, I did the same with piano students playing Red Garland. Yesterday, I stumbled onto videos of guitar students playing Wes Montgomery. Here are eight videos plus a cover by a professional trio:
Here's Audrey playing Four on Six...
Here's Dearly Beloved...
Here's Mr. Walker...
Here's Alex Baird signing a vocalese on Montgomery's recording of The Days of Wine and Roses...
Here's Gentle Rain...
Here's Cecil Alexander playing West Coast Blues...
Here's Sun Down (played in a bathrobe)...
And here's the bass line to So Do It!...
Bonus: Here's Gerard Cubillon on guitar, Patrick Villanueva on organ and Stepahne Germaud on drums playing So Do It!...
