Johnny Griffin- Legendary Bop Rhythm & Blues Classics (CD)
These rare Chicago jazz sessions for the Parrot label featuring tenor sax great and Chicago native Johnny "Little Giant" Griffin are believed to have taken place in late 1953, although the resulting LP wasn't released until 1958. Griffin was developing a reputation as "fastest tenor in the west", for the ease with which he could execute fast note runs with excellent intonation, and eventually signed with Blue Note Records in 1956. Accompanying Griffin's tenor sax are Junior Mance piano; Wilbur Ware bass; and Wilbert "Buddy" Smith drums. All selections newly remastered.
Tracklist:
- I Cried For You
- Satin Wrap
- Yesterdays
- Riff Raff
- Bees-Ees
- The Boy Next Door
- These Foolish Things
- Lollypop
