For this performance of the In The Moment Concert series, produced by KCSM’s Jim Bennett, guitarist Terrence Brewer presents a reimagining of his favorite Wes Montgomery album Full House. Full House is the seventh album and first live jazz album by American jazz guitarist Wes Montgomery, released in 1962, on the Riverside record label. It was recorded live at Tsubo in Berkeley, California on June 25, 1962. The Tsubo had been opened by entrepreneur Glenn Ross in September 1961 with jazz radio station, KJAZ-FM, also housed in the same building. Although the establishment was favored among Berkeley residents for not serving alcohol and welcoming minors, Ross could not sustain upkeep on the establishment. It finally closed on October 15, 1962. The venue reemerged as the Jabberwock. Montgomery’s performance featured a quintet that included Wynton Kelly on piano, Johnny Griffin, playing tenor saxophone, Paul Chambers, bass, and Jimmy Cobb, drums. On this occasion, Terrence is joined by saxophonist Steve Heckman, pianist Tim Campbell, bassist Adam Gay, and drummer Isaac Schwartz.
