Grant Green – Idle Moments

For 2014, Blue Note — along with Universal Music Enterprises — is launching a major 75th Anniversary Vinyl Initiative that is dedicated to the proposition that Blue Note’s catalog should be readily available at a low cost — featuring high quality pressings and authentic reproductions of Blue Note’s iconic packaging.

Time is suspended on these haunting, extended tunes by this brilliant guitarist with the aid of an all-star cast. Unique in Green’s discography for its relaxed, lengthy performances and almost dream-like lyricism, this Blue Note classic could well be called Ballads for the Ages.
