One of my favourite Wes videos. Walking the pianist through his preferred changes to “The End of a Love Affair”. Fascinating to see it all unfold in real time, and how effortlessly the two musicians communicate their ideas. This is what it's all about!

I LOVE this performance. The only copy of it I could find is just one solid recording with no breaks. But that recording is one of a handful of pieces of music that never get moved off my phone. I've listened to Wes explain this I don't know how many times now.

It is! Now if only there were an incredibly talented English guitar teacher to teach us D-natural Blues then we'd be set ;)

Gonna have to save the new lesson till later, I need to go back to you Wes Montgomery deep dive right now :)

I'm taken most by the very sound of Wes' guitar. Very resonant, clear and jazzy.

And dig the sheer grace of picking everything with just his thumb. Wow.

Hay un Wes en Benson y en todos los que seguimos la evolución en la guitarra.. Hermoso, gracias Alex.

Wes - an absolute genius!

Bob Marsh

And he uses his thumb only! Absolutely amazing!

Alex Farran Guitar

Very hard to emulate that aspect of his playing, but a fun workout none-the-less!

A Dreamsville breakdown from Guitar on the go would be amazing ! Especially the progression at the very end of the song
