Grant Green, Green is Beautiful, 1970 on Blue Note
Green joined here by Blue Mitchell (trumpet), Claude Bartee (tenor sax), Emmanuel Riggens (organ), Jimmy Lewis (bass), and Idris Muhammad (drums) plus Richard Lendrum (bongos) and Candido Camero (congas). Recorded in 1970 by Rudy Van Gelder in Englewood Cliffs, NJ. My copy—via Salem Flea Marketplace—is the 2023 Blue Note Classic Vinyl Series reissue, mastered by Kevin Gray at Cohearent Audio and pressed at Optimal, which sounds (and looks) great.https://goatless.org/2026/05/16/grant-green-green-is-beautiful-1970-on-blue-note

Fan of the late Walter Becker? Becker once name-checked Grant Green as an influence. Green's Alive! album is all killer, no filler. Idris Muhammad puts on a drum clinic. This track was sampled by A Tribe Called Quest.

@BEK97 @vinylrecords Will be checking this one out. Seems like #GrantGreen flies under the radar. #WalterBecker namechecked him as a massive influence. That was enough for me. Green is a real one.
