by Scott YanowOn two of the songs included on Tequila, Tequila and The Thumb, Wes Montgomery had an opportunity to jam a bit while backed just by bassist Ron Carter, drummer Grady Tate and the congas of Ray Barretto. The other six selections utilize a string section arranged by Claus Ogerman but, even with a throwaway version of What the World Needs Now Is Love, there are memorable renditions of Bumpin' on Sunset and Insensatez that uplift this album quite a bit beyond the guitarist's later A&M recordings.
