East!


East! is the third album by guitarist Pat Martino recorded in 1968 and released on the Prestige label.

Reception

's Scott Yanow awarded the album 4½ stars stating "Despite the title and the cover of this CD reissue, the style played by guitarist Pat Martino's quartet is very much in the hard bop tradition. Martino was already developing his own sound and is in excellent form... It's a good example of Pat Martino's playing in his early period".
