Stanley Turrentine and Grant Green only recorded together on four occasions, and the dates included here, originally issued on "Z.T.’s Blues", "Up at Minton’s Vol.1", and "Up at Minton’s Vol.2", marked their only preserved collaborations in a quintet format, with Turrentine as the only horn and with Green getting a lot of solo space. This release contains all three albums in their entireties, plus three rare tracks by Turrentine from an obscure session led by trumpeter Dizzy Reece, which are presented here as a bonus.

  1. Thx a lot for this interesting reissue!
    A bit of info:
    This is a complete set of the sessions of Turrentine and Green mentioned above, originally issued on Blue Note. But "Groove Hut Records" is a label of the parent label Fresh Sound, of Spanish origin and based in Catalonia. They specialize in reissues and recently their own productions. Fair enough. But many times the reissues (here of said 3 BNote albums) are famed for being notoriously bad-sounding, no remastering of the old tapes at all, so the sound quality depends on the actual recording made many years ago. In general they just copy the recordings (I believe not even the master recordings) straight to CD. A bit thick, IMHO. Luckily in this case the original albums were Blue Note productions, so it is hoped sound shall be OK. Cheers Daniel, from Spain...
