Originally released in 1961, this is Grant Green’s debut album, ’Grant’s First Stand’ still ranks as one of his greatest pure Soul Jazz outings, a set of killer grooves laid down by the hard-swinging organ trio Green , organist Baby Face Willette and drummer Ben Dixon . Recorded at the van Gelder Studio, New Jersey. Green displays his unique bop phrasing to fine effect on his high-octane opener, ’Miss Ann’s Tempo’, and Willette’s ’Baby’s Minor Lope’. The two standards ’Lullaby of the Leaves’ and ’ ’Tain’t Nobody’s Bizness If I Do’ are given smoky treatments soaked in Bluesy, late-night atmosphere.
