Personnel: Wes Montgomery (guitar, bass guitar); James Clay (flute, saxophone, tenor saxophone); Victor Feldman (piano); Louis Hayes (drums). Recording information: Los Angeles, CA (10/12/1960). MOVIN' ALONG finds Wes Montgomery, still in the early days of his discovery by the jazz community, recording on the West Coast with Cannonball Adderley's rhythm section. The ensemble also includes James Clay, primarily on flute, and Montgomery is credited with bass guitar on four of the tracks--actually a six-string electric bass, which he uses for melodies and solos rather than replacing Sam Jones' upright bass on any of the tunes. The repertoire is Montgomery's usual balance of originals, jazz compositions, and standards. "So Do It" is a stop-time bebop line, while the title cut is a reflective blues in the hard bop vein, with a patient, low-flame groove. Flute and brushes lend Clifford Brown's extroverted blues "Sandu" an intimate feel, even when Jones and Montgomery are trading acoustic and electric bass lines.
