I'm a jazz guitarists who playing the bars in St Louis MO in the Mid 1980,s. And in walked a lady who said I sounded like Grant. She was a girlfriend of his. What a hell of a compliment

Wow! That’s rad! I’d be stoked to get a compliment like that. When I was younger, I played a lot of blues jam sessions. My mom and stepdad used to come watch me play sometimes. One day, after I had lent my mom a recording of Albert Collins, I came over to her house and she had it playing. She said, “this guy sounds like you!“ To this day, one of the best compliments I ever got from anyone.

To complete the circle, Grant Green was considered the father of "Acid Jazz" or "Club Jazz" a term referring to the fusion of funk, jazz, soul and later, disco, it makes perfect sense that Grant left the hospital against doctors orders, to go back on the road, and died in his car of a heart attack between sets he was playing at George Benson's Breezing Lounge in New York City on Jan. 31, 1979,. His signature tone was achieved by rolling treble and bass off his amp and cranking the mid range. So there you have it, from Christian to Grant to Benson,.

When you reach a high plateau of playing...it depends largely on the setting, the date & the support cast. I heard the bi-centennial concert at Carnegie Hall: Kenny Burrell, Jim Hall & Tal Farlow. It was a bit disappointing, as I'd heard all doing much more memorable playing both previous & later (I think Jim Hall did the best of the 3, but Burrell is my favorite...for a long time); One 'new' guy is Russell Malone...sounds much like a combination of Johnny Smith & Burrell (you don't get much better than that!) And, of course...a must is to listen to Django...an awful lot came from there!

Amazing. Before I was born someone was playing this music. Im saddened that it took 40+ years before my guitar lead me to this music. But now Im in neck deep. Of course once again saddened because I live in a small shallow minded town where there's nobody I can experiment or play this music with. But it's ok. Because I have youtube so I get to play with all of them, from grant Green, Robben Ford, Miles Davis, John Scofield, and others anytime I want.

I love Grsnt Green. So bluesy, such great LINES!!! I think the reason he is underrated is because Wes was SUCH a GIANT that he overshadowed everyone else. Much like Bird and Trane overshadowed everyone on the sax. What was it that Wes brought that no one else did? The development of his solos from single line, to octaves to full on chordal improvising. Redefining the way the guitar could be played. Much like Jimi did with Rock guitar.. But, Grant Green had a unique, bluesy, singing sound on guitar that was absolutely awesome! He would have been revered if he had lived longer.

I have more often than not difficulties distinguishing the sounds of master jazz guitarists, especially when they are covering the more popular tunes but almost never Grant Green. One of the most distinctive and for me one of the most elating and yet poignant playing ever. No surprise to hear that in his time, he probably ensured the survival of the Blue Note Label. Apparently they were loosing money on most of the other artist. I doubt not that he also contributed, albeit rarely acknowledged to the success of many guitarists, including electric rock guitarists, who may have influenced Elvis. Thanks for publishing this rare footage. Made me really very happy!

I've been preaching Grant Green for years (even got a GG tee shirt). This is wonderful film of his trio. I agree that Grant Green and Wes Montgomery are THE guitarists. In a very different vein, I like John McLaughlin. But for me, Grant Green is top of the heap.

Thank you for posting this. A once in a lifetime to see Grant Green perform after listening to him play for many years in records. But to see this giant produce such a singing, soulful, and melodic quality on the guitar is indeed a remarkable treat! And, Larry Ridley, who was one of college professors at Rutgers University is taking care of serious business.

Up until now I only knew Wes' version of "How Insensitive". (1966). I'm not going to do the comparison thing, which would not be fair to either artist, but Mr. Green, the trio, knocked it out of the park.

Well I named my son (who was born in 1966) after him .. So I guess you could say I've been on board here a long time :-) ... Have you seen the other concert BYW with Green Kessel and Burrell and the same bass and drums that I put up around the same time ... Here's the link kzbin.info/www/bejne/lWXNfoSEf6uDhZY

Grant Green's misfortunate was to work in the same era as so many other great jazz guitarists - Wes Montgomery, George Benson, Johnny Smith, Kenny Burrell, Joe Pass, to name a few - and Green was consequently overshadowed at times and didn't receive his due. However, Green was amongst the busiest musicians in the Blue Note stable during his heyday, not only as a leader, but as a guest artist and sideman. This level of activity reflects just how well-respected he was as a musician and performer with his peers. Green left us too soon, but he left behind a legacy of wonderful recordings for jazz fans to enjoy.
