Our Take

Grant Green's "Grantstand" album is a dizzying whirlwind of jazz prowess and virtuosity, encapsulating the essence of the genre in a way that only Green can. From the moment the needle hits the record, listeners are transported to a smoky, dimly lit jazz club where Green's guitar skills take center stage.

The album kicks off with the lively and infectious "Blues in Maude's Flat," setting the tone for what's to come. Green's smooth guitar licks dance effortlessly over the driving rhythm section, creating an irresistible groove that will have you tapping your toes in no time.

Tracks like "My Favorite Things" and "Green with Envy" showcase Green's incredible range and versatility as a musician, effortlessly moving between tempos and styles with ease. Each note is played with precision and passion, leaving listeners in awe of Green's undeniable talent.

But it's not just Green's guitar skills that shine on this album. The supporting cast of musicians, including the legendary Sonny Clark on piano and the dynamic duo of Sam Jones and Art Blakey on bass and drums, respectively, elevate each track to new heights.

Overall, "Grantstand" is a masterpiece of modern jazz that showcases Green's incredible skill and musicality. It's a must-listen for any jazz aficionado looking for a taste of the genre at its finest. So sit back, relax, and let Grant Green take you on a musical journey you won't soon forget.
