johnny griffin introducing size:OS The flautist’s classic 1973 jazz/funkTenor saxophonist Johnny Griffin blew out of Chicago and made his debut album for Blue Note Records in 1956 steering a nimble quartet with pianist Wynton Kelly, bassist Curly Russell, and drummer Max Roach through a fantastic set of originals and standards. From the blistering opener Mil Dew to the loping Chicago Calling and bluesy Nice and Easy Griffins staggering technical ability and buoyant swing is readily apparent at every twist and turn.
