Boss Guitar was one of the last bebop LPs Wes Montgomery recorded before moving into the style that is now referred to as “smooth jazz”. A trio set, the guitarist is backed here by Mel Rhyne on organ and Jimmy Cobb on drums (the latter is best known for his years as a member of the Miles Davis Quintet). Both Wes and Rhyne were Indianapolis natives, and there are 1957-58 recordings from that city featuring the two musicians playing together. They would also record Wes’ 1959 Riverside LP, The Wes Montgomery Trio, together along with drummer Paul Parker. The present album marked their final recorded collaboration. Jimmy Cobb had already recorded the LP Full House with Montgomery on June 25, 1962, and would continue collaborating with the guitarist in 1965-66.
