Wes Montgomery· Echoes of Indiana Avenue
Release Date: March 13, 2012
"When legendary jazz guitarist Wes Montgomery died
in 1968, the list of his recordings filled an entire page -
single-spaced. Now, more space is needed, because a significant new
collection of previously unreleased Wes Montgomery music is out this
month on a new compilation, Echoes of Indiana Avenue." - National Public Radio "Weekend Edition"
"Wes
Montgomery was the most dynamic and influential jazz guitarist of the
1960s. But his pre-1960 recordings as a band leader are scarce. Now,
Resonance Records is releasing "Wes Montgomery: Echoes of Indiana
Avenue"-nine newly discovered tracks from 1957 and 1958 that crisply
document this jazz soloist's ascension." - The Wall Street Journal
"This release, which was more than 50 years in the making, is a true treasure for fans of guitarist Wes Montgomery." - DownBeat

Bill Evans· Live at Art D'Lugoff's Top of the Gate
Release Date: June 14, 2012
"...a two-CD set that rivals Evans's revered Village Vanguard recordings for Riverside in June '61." - The Wall Street Journal
"The
long-ago sounds of these two live sets of the Bill Evans trio playing
mostly standards, recorded in a long-gone Greenwich Village club, Top of
the Gate (it was literally above the better-known Village Gate jazz
club), are, if not the holy grail, then a very gilded cup." - Stereophile
"Sublime historical recordings, thoroughly enjoyable." - eMusic

Donald Vega· Spiritual Nature
Release Date: August 14, 2012
"'Spiritual
Nature,' his second album, puts him in charge of a gilt-edged rhythm
team - the bassist Christian McBride and the drummer Lewis Nash - and he
rarely seems out of his depth." - The New York Times
"Donald Vega's 'Spiritual Nature' is one of year's best jazz CDs."
"Vega's music is as impressive as his life story, particularly on his
second album, Spiritual Nature..." - DownBeat
