Wes Montgomery - Road Song (O.G.D.) Guitar Transcription | PDF, TAB & Guitar Pro | Jimmy Smith 1966
This is a note-for-note guitar transcription of Wes Montgomery's solo on "O.G.D." (later known as "Road Song"), with standard notation and TAB in PDF, plus a Guitar Pro file synced to the original recording. Learn his single-note lines and famous octaves exactly as he played them.
Wes wrote this tune himself and recorded it with organ legend Jimmy Smith in September 1966 at Van Gelder Studio. It comes from the album "Further Adventures of Jimmy and Wes" (Verve, released in 1968), made in the same sessions as "Jimmy & Wes: The Dynamic Duo."
On this track, Wes plays in a small group: organ, guitar, drums, and congas. This gives him lots of space to stretch out. You can hear both sides of his playing here: clear, singing single-note lines and his warm, powerful octaves.
