Performer: Grant Green
Distributor: MSI Music Distribution Notes: Organ Trio & Quartet is an unusually dodgy compilation on Groovehut that assembles a very random selection of Grant Green sides from his later career not only as a leader but as a sideman. Those being introduced to Green should avoid this because it lacks continuity and does not represent the true quality of the player (which is not to say that a lot of what is here isn't good), and those veterans and longtime fans have everything here assembled better in other places. This is just a grab for your buck. ~ Thom Jurek
St. Louis-born guitarist Grant Green was a giant of what came to be known as soul-jazz. His singular style incorporated the influences of Gospel, blues, and R&B, and defined a unique post-bop language for electric guitar. His classic early-1960s Blue Note recordings are high-water marks of both the soul-jazz sound and of jazz guitar in general. Drug abuse sadly hampered his later career; he died in 1979, but his son, the jazz guitarist Grant Green, Jr., continues his legacy.
