A severely underrated player during his lifetime, Grant Green is one of the great unsung heroes of jazz guitar. He combined an extensive foundation in R&B with a mastery of bebop and simplicity that put expressiveness ahead of technical expertise. Green was a superb blues interpreter, and while his later material was predominantly blues and R&B, he was also a wondrous ballad and standards soloist. He was a particular admirer of Charlie Parker, and his phrasing often reflected it.

John legend ripped him off. Lol. Anyone catch it

Grant Green, one of my favorite musicians, not only guitarists.. as well put in a commentary in this loop he may certainly have been underrated... however thanks to the much availability of his music I think subsequent generations of musicians have been introduced to a real virtuosic guitar master, with a truly distinct signature sound.. perhaps Grant being on the scene when Wes as a recording artist was knocking cats out could be part of the reason as to why his popularity was affected... I don’t think he was a sellout as some critics deemed him... just a true creative master that employed all the components of jazz in everything he played and interpreted with a unique un-Wes-like single line, phrasing, an immediately identifiable sound, with a seemingly endless vocabulary..

Grant green owned jazz from 1969 to 1974 every album hit number 1 please recognize great music Detroit homeboy

I feel like you can clearly hear The Doors were hugely "inspired" by this when they recorded some of their most notable smash hits

In my top 5 jazz songs of all time list. The guitar solo and sax both solo begin with such an effortless sense of urgency and palpable intent. I normally like flashy drumming, but in this case the restrained simplicity is a plus.If only someone could make a mashup that overlays some of Linda Ronstadt’s vocals (from her spectacular version of this song) towards the end, I could die happy and unhurt...

Like a waterfall of sound!
