Grant Green • Blue Note Retrospective

 

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.

En pocas palabras, esta es una muy decente colección de cuatro discos del trabajo del guitarrista Grant Green. Presenta temas de sus muchos álbumes como líder y algunos como acompañante de otros, como Lee Morgan, John Patton, Baby Face Willette y Sonny Clark. Sus lados de principios de los 60 están aquí junto con la mayoría de sus cortes definitorios de los 60, desde el hard bop al soul-jazz a las baladas y al gospel - todo lo que la mayoría de los fans querría está aquí, incluyendo sus lados de blues tardío grabados en los bares de Detroit en 1970. Aunque los álbumes de Green nunca podrán ser reemplazados, este es un sólido retrato de uno de los guitarristas de jazz más influyentes de la historia.
