Groove Yard is an album by The Montgomery Brothers, released in 1961.
In a review for Allmusic, music critic Ken Dryden wrote: "The guitarist and his brothers are in great form throughout the session in spite of the less-than-ideal piano provided. The highlight of the evening in the studio is a foot-tapping version of Carl Perkins' 'Groove Yard,' followed closely by a wild ride through Harold Land's 'Delirium.'... Like most of Wes Montgomery's Riverside recordings, this release is an essential part of his discography and is highly recommended."
The song "Groove Yard" is usually titled "Grooveyard".
