Back by popular demand from RSD 2017, Smokin' in Seattle: Live at the Penthouse, with jazz guitar icon Wes Montgomery and the Wynton Kelly Trio, is getting a second pressing with new front and back album cover artwork. Captured live at the Penthouse in Seattle, WA on April 14 and 21, 1966, less than a year after Wes and Wynton's classic 1965 live album Smokin at the Half Note, Smokin' in Seattle features bassist Ron McClure (Charles Lloyd, Joe Henderson) and the legendary drummer Jimmy Cobb. The deluxe 180-gram LP is mastered by Matthew Lutthans at The Mastering Lab, pressed at Le Vinylist, and comes with an elaborate insert with rare photos by Lee Tanner, Chuck Stewart, Tom Copi, Joe Alpert and others; essays by modern jazz guitar legend Pat Metheny, Seattle Times writer Paul de Barros, Resonance producer and "Jazz Detective" Zev Feldman, original recording engineer and Seattle Radio DJ Jim Wilke, and bassist Ron McClure; plus interviews with NEA Jazz Masters Jimmy Cobb and pianist Kenny Barron.
