The debut album on A&M Records by jazz guitarist Wes Montgomery, A Day in the Life was released in 1967 and reached #1 on the Billboard Jazz Albums chart and #2 on the R&B chart. Considered by far the best of his three LPs on A&M (in partnership with Creed Taylor’s CTI Records), it features a plethora of star sidemen, such as Herbie Hancock, Ron Carter, Ray Barretto and Grady Tate, among others, as well as superb arrangements by Don Sebesky. A Day in the Life was masterfully engineered by the legendary Rudy Van Gelder. LIMITED GATEFOLD EDITION - 180-GRAM HIGH QUALITY VIRGIN VINYL
