Product Details

Green recorded prolifically for Blue Note in the early '60s, cutting sessions at a remarkable pace that let him stretch into unexpected territory between his hard bop commitments. Latin Bit finds him leaning into Afro-Cuban and Brazilian rhythms with genuine curiosity rather than novelty, a side trip that holds up as one of the more distinctive dates from that deep Blue Note catalog run.


Limited 180gm vinyl LP pressing housed in gatefold packaging. Guitarist Grant Green explored Latin and Brazilian influences on his highly enjoyable 1962 album, The Latin Bit, featuring Johnny Acea on piano, Wendell Marshall on bass, Willie Bobo on drums, Carlos "Patato" Valdes on conga, and Garvin Masseaux on chekere. Blue Note Tone Poet Series features all-analog, remastered sound.
