Grant Green - Retrospective 1961-66 (2002) (4CD Box Set)
Label: Blue Note, Capitol | 4CD | MP3 320 kbps | 713 MB
Genre: Jazz, Hard Bop, Jazz-Funk, Soul Jazz, Guitar
Simply put, this is a very decent four-disc collection of the work of guitarist Grant Green. It features tracks from his many albums as a leader and some as a sideman with others, such as Lee Morgan, John Patton, Baby Face Willette, and Sonny Clark. His early-'60s sides are here along with most of his defining cuts from the '60s, from hard bop to soul-jazz to ballads to gospel -- everything most fans would ever want is here, including his late blues sides recorded in the bars of Detroit in 1970. While Green's own albums can never be replaced, this is a solid portrait of one of the most influential jazz guitarists in history.
