4 STARS DOWN BEAT MAGAZINE - 4 STARS ALL MUSIC GUIDE
This release presents Grant Greenâs complete LP Green Street (Blue Note BST84071), a wonderful trio set which constituted the guitaristâs third studio date as a leader. He is showcased here backed by Ben Tucker on bass, and Dave Bailey on drums. In addition to the original album and the only two existing alternate takes from the session, itâs been added the three tracks featuring Greenâs longest solos from a session recorded a few days earlier on which the same three musicians are joined by saxophonist Frank Haynes and pianist Billy Gardner. Green would never record again with the amazing rhythm section of Tucker and Bailey.
