Our Take

The Red Garland Trio's "Groovy" is the epitome of cool, baby. This reissue from the Original Jazz Classics Series is sure to have you grooving in your living room like it's 1957 all over again. Garland's piano skills are on point, delivering those smooth, jazzy vibes that will have you tapping your toes and snapping your fingers in no time.

The trio's chemistry is undeniable, with Paul Chambers on bass and Art Taylor on drums effortlessly keeping up with Garland's mesmerizing piano work. From the upbeat tempo of "C-Jam Blues" to the laid-back groove of "Gone Again," each track is a masterpiece in its own right.

But it's not all just smooth sounds and catchy melodies. Garland's playful touch on the keys adds a whimsical element to the music, making each track feel like a journey through a jazz-filled wonderland.

Overall, "Groovy" is a timeless classic that showcases the talent and chemistry of the Red Garland Trio. So sit back, relax, and let the smooth sounds of this album transport you to a world where jazz reigns supreme. Cheers, darlings.

About the artist

The Red Garland Trio

Ah, the Red Garland Trio. A name that conjures up images of dimly lit jazz clubs, swirling cigarette smoke, and smooth, velvety piano melodies. Red Garland, born William McKinley Garland, was a jazz pianist with a style as unique as his nickname. Known for his impeccable technique and soulful touch, Garland rose to fame in the 1950s as a member of the Miles Davis Quintet. But it was with his own trio that Garland truly shined. With bassist Paul Chambers and drummer Art Taylor by his side, the Red Garland Trio created some of the most swinging, grooving music of the era. Garland's piano playing was like a fine wine - complex, rich, and with a hint of sophistication. His fingers danced across the keys with effortless grace, weaving intricate melodies and harmonies that could transport you to another world. But don't let Garland's smooth exterior fool you - he had a mischievous streak too. His playful improvisations and sly sense of humour added a dash of spice to his music, keeping listeners on their toes and always coming back for more. The Red Garland Trio may not have been the flashiest or most avant-garde group of their time, but what they lacked in innovation, they more than made up for in sheer musicality and groove. So next time you're in the mood for some classic, swinging jazz, pour yourself a drink, dim the lights, and put on some Red Garland Trio. You won't be disappointed.
