"It's a challenge to play the music of another musician, and even more so when that musician happens to be a giant of your own instrument. Even though Wes seems to be the guitarist against whom all others are most often measured, it's my feeling that Wes's ability to communicate such a wide emotional range, his uniqueness and finally even his success, all demonstrate clearly that the ultimate goal for any one of us is to develope our own approach, our own style, our own way."
--- Joshua Breakstone
Guitarist Joshua Breakstone pays tribute to Wes Montgomery on this set, performing eight of the late guitarist's compositions plus his own "Tomorrow's Hours." Montgomery was not really known as a composer, although the songs that Breakstone has chosen are mostly pretty inventive, even if few (other than "Twisted Blues" and "Jingles") are that well-known. Joined by bassist Earl Sauls and drummer Keith Copeland, Breakstone emulates Montgomery's style in a few spots (utilizing octaves a little more than usual), but mostly plays in his own complementary voice. The music is straight-ahead and swinging and is as easily recommended as all of Joshua Breakstone's recordings.

Joshua Breakstone
Active Decades: '70s, '80s, '90s and '00s
Born: Jul 22, 1955 in Elizabeth, NJ
Genre: Jazz
Styles: Cool, Hard Bop
A fine bop-based guitarist, Joshua Breakstone discovered jazz when he was 14. He studied for several years with Sal Salvador, yet at the time was gigging regularly with a rock group. He attended Berklee, and in 1977, toured Canada with the reed player Glen Hall, making his recording debut on Hall's Sonora release. During and after teaching guitar at the Rhode Island Conservatory of Music (1979-1981), Breakstone worked in New York with Warne Marsh, Emily Remler, Dave Schnitter, and Vic Juris. In 1983, he recorded his first album (Wonderful!) for Sonora. While that date had Barry Harris on piano, his follow-up featured Kenny Barron. Breakstone went on to record for Contemporary (including a quartet date featuring Pepper Adams), Capri, Evidence, and Double-Time, helping keep the legacy of quiet bop guitar alive.
