Not speaking for David, I can think of some that I like a lot. Herbie 
Mann's charanga recordings for Atlantic (of course, strings were in that 
tradition), but I also liked much of what Wes Montgomery did for Verve.

===============
I lose interest in Montgomery (and Grant Green and Jimmy Smith) after 
they joined Verve. I tend to collect their stuff for whose with them. In 
fact, I don't see much point in their playing, when Kenny Burrell was 
(and still is) around--they all played in that rather "sleepy", "sittin' 
'n' whittlin'" style. On their own, they're fine for background music. I 
prefer a more incisive approach (e.g. Tiny Grimes and Everett Barksdale).
