Title: Green at his peak....
Review: In my opinion Green reached his peak somewhere around 1964-65. This CD is one of his very best. The collaboration bedwteen Green, Young and Jones is super. On the opnener "Talkin about JC" (John Coltrane of course)Young sets the groove, and then Green starts to groove, for every 12 bar chorus he digs deeper into the groove. I am also very fond of "Luny Tune". It gives a kick when Green takes off right after the lead, his guitar is singing, and his playing is flawless and totally relaxed. I always felt that Jones and Green goes very well together, and that is something that Jones confirms in the biography about Green, which is by the way highly recommended to all "Green fans".(REDISCOVERING THE FORGOTTEN GENIUS OF JAZZ GUITAR, by Sharony Andrews Green, MIller Freeman Books)
