Although most Wes Montgomery fans associate his playing with strings with his later A&M and Verve recordings, the influential guitarist actually fronted a string section for the first time on this Riverside date from 1963, which had the ironic name of Fusion. As with his later albums, Montgomery's guitar solos here are brief and melodic but the jazz content is fairly high even if the emphasis is (with the exception of "Tune Up") on ballads.

Wes Montgomery with Strings is the eighth album by American jazz guitarist Wes Montgomery, released in 1963. Adderley recorded with Montgomery on his Pollwinners album, Montgomery recorded with his brothers and various other group members, including the Wynton Kelly Trio which previously backed up Miles Davis. John Coltrane asked Montgomery to join his band after a jam session, boss Guitar seems to refer to his status as a guitar-playing bandleader.
