Same cat.
I was listening to Griff's BUSH DANCE reissue last night, and George just made me get happy, like he always does. A tone and attack suitable for a late-40s L.A. jumb blues band, deviously fluid chops, and no compunctions against going against the grain of the harmony. What's not to love there?
Jim - you got that LAST BLUES ALBUM, VOL. 1, w/McGriff, Jacquet, George, & Buddy Rich?
