Jazz

A hugely influential figure, Wes Montgomery's innovative jazz guitar technique had a big influence on later generations of guitarists, notably Jimi Hendrix, George Benson, Pat Metheny, Kenny Burrell and Stevie Ray Vaughan. He was born into a musical family (his brothers Monk and Buddy played bass and piano respectively and performed together as the Montgomery Brothers) although Wes didn't start playing guitar until he was 19.
