Posted 3 Apr 2018 Grant plays tenor sax on 6 tracks and soprano sax on the other 2 tracks. On tenor his identifiable sound and style come through strongly. When he plays soprano his playing lacks those qualities, and he loses the personal qualities that make him one of my favorite living tenor saxophonists.

Everything MH seems to turn to gold. She’s that good, IMO NP Johnny Hammond Smith/——-Good’Nuff———(Prestige) nice combo of two LPs . Not familiar enough where this ranks in his output.
