Our Take

Hot damn, Tubby Hayes Quartet's "Grits, Beans and Greens" is like a musical smorgasbord for the senses. This album is a jazzy rollercoaster ride through funky grooves and soulful melodies that will have you tapping your toes and snapping your fingers in no time.

From the opening track "Soul Shack" to the closing notes of "Across the Board," Tubby Hayes and his quartet deliver a masterclass in cool. The interplay between Hayes on saxophone, pianist Terry Shannon, bassist Ron Mathewson, and drummer Benny Goodman is nothing short of magical, creating a sound that is at once tight and spontaneous.

But it's not just the musicianship that makes this album shine - the compositions themselves are top-notch. Each track is like a little musical journey, taking the listener on a whirlwind tour of emotions and textures. From the melancholy beauty of "Sadie's Song" to the upbeat energy of "Rumpus," there's something here for everyone.

So grab yourself a cup of tea, put on your best smoking jacket, and settle in for a truly delightful listening experience. Tubby Hayes Quartet's "Grits, Beans and Greens" is a must-have for any jazz aficionado, and a welcome addition to any music lover's collection. Cheers, old chap!
