Grant GREEN "Blues in Maude's flat - Part 1" (1961)

[jpalberthoward9]

Geez! I really am an old relic! I used to go hear the Atlanta Rhythm Section in Piedmont Park and also in under ground Atlanta zillions of aeons ago. They are the way I discovered Grant. Rock bands used to provide a gate way to earlier music. I used to read the liner notes, and then go hit the used record stores. you could get a decent musical education that way, and also score some killer music for not a whole lots o' bucks. Man, I reckon themz wuz de Flintstones dayz, huh?

Grant Green and Jack McDuff in the same session, this is amazing stuff. Bought this album 20 years ago still love every song.

@eamesuser Wow I cant believe that you mentioned the Atlanta Rhythm Section. There's some great playing on their version.
