Grant Green – Sunday Morning (CD)
Product Details
Grant Green remains one of the most underappreciated voices in the Blue Note catalog, a guitarist whose single-note phrasing carried the directness of bebop without ever losing touch with the blues and gospel that shaped him growing up in St. Louis. Recorded during a remarkably prolific stretch when he was cutting multiple sessions a year for the label, Sunday Morning captures him in an intimate, unhurried mode that rewards close listening.
With this 1961 album, Grant Green moved away from the organ format to present himself as mature, well-rounded guitarist backed by a trio headed by pianist Kenny Drew. In addition to his own originals, he crafts beautiful versions of Billie Holiday's 'God Bless the Child' and Miles Davis's 'So What'. Includes bonus track 'Tracin' Tracey'. Rudy Van Gelder remastered edition. Blue Note. 2005.
