Our Take

Grant Green's "Funk In France: From Paris To Antibes" takes us on a groovy journey through the streets of France, combining Green's signature guitar licks with infectious funk rhythms. It's a toe-tapping, head-bobbing delight from start to finish, perfect for a sunny afternoon sipping wine in a Parisian café.

The album kicks off with the funky "Blues For Juanita", setting the tone for what's to come. Green's smooth guitar work is complemented by a tight rhythm section, creating a sound that is both retro and fresh. Tracks like "I Don't Want Nobody To Give Me Nothing" and "Upshot" showcase Green's ability to blend jazz and funk seamlessly, resulting in irresistibly catchy tunes that will have you dancing in your seat.

One standout track is the soulful "Hurt So Bad", where Green's emotive playing shines through. The raw emotion in his guitar solos is palpable, making this track a standout moment on an already stellar album. The live recordings capture the energy of Green's performances, transporting the listener to the vibrant jazz clubs of France.

Overall, "Funk In France: From Paris To Antibes" is a fun and funky listen that will appeal to both jazz aficionados and casual listeners alike. Grant Green's mastery of the guitar is on full display here, making this album a must-listen for anyone craving some good old-fashioned funk with a French twist. Don't miss out on this gem – it's a true delight for the ears.
