{"product_id":"wes-montgomery-california-dreaming-120464","title":"California Dreaming ","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe last album Wes Montgomery released for Verve in his lifetime—and among his last works ever, just before a trio of albums for A\u0026amp;M released in his final year—was 1967\u0026#039;s \u0026#34;California Dreaming.\u0026#34; Like many of the guitarist\u0026#039;s Verve recordings, the album found Montgomery pivoting away from proper jazz and more toward pop fare from what the original liner notes deemed \u0026#34;the uptight, outasight, everything’s-gonna-be-alright-‘60s”—all produced with brio by Creed Taylor and arranged by Don Sebesky. The album pairs Montgomery’s signature octave-driven guitar style with lush, string-laden orchestrations and a large, varied ensemble featuring luminaries like Ray Beckenstein and Stan Webb on saxophone and Herbie Hancock on piano. Key tracks include the title tune, a Top 5 hit for The Mamas and The Papas, along with then-current pop instrumentals by Bobby Hebb (\u0026#34;Sunny\u0026#34;) and Sol Lake (\u0026#34;More, More, Amor,\u0026#34; \u0026#34;Green Peppers,\u0026#34; \u0026#34;Winds of Barcelona\u0026#34;).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eVERVE ACOUSTIC SOUNDS SERIES: mastered fully analogue from the original tapes by Ryan K.
