Moonlight in Vermont (album)
''Moonlight in Vermont'' is a 1956 jazz album by jazz guitarist Johnny Smith, featuring tenor saxophonist Stan Getz. Titled for Smith's breakthrough hit song, it was the #1 Jazz Album for 1956. It was popularly and critically well received and has come to be regarded as an important album in Smith's discography, in the cool jazz genre and in the evolution of jazz guitar. Notable songs on the album, which reveal the influence of Smith's experiences with NBC Studio Orchestra and as a multi-instrument musician, include the title track and the original composition "Jaguar". The title track, singled out for its virtuosity, was a highly influential rendition of a jazz standard that secured Smith's position in the public eye.
Originally released on Roost Records, the album was reissued in significantly expanded form by Roulette Records in 1994, with more material including a previously unreleased version of "Jaguar".
== Reception ==
Well-received, the album became the #1 Jazz Album for 1952, a position it attained, according to the retrospective book ''Gibson Electrics'', as an "overnight best-seller capturing the essence of the cool jazz era." Critically regarded as one of the defining albums of cool jazz, it is listed in ''A Concise History of Electric Guitar'' among those few recordings which "firmly established" the electric guitar's "sound in popular culture, elevating it from the dark dissonance of bebop jazz to the more consonant textures of a rapidly developing style called western swing." ''Guitar World'' characterizes it as Smith's "classic album".〔.〕
