This Creed Taylor-produced session offers deeply-felt renditions of Green's topical original \"The Selma March\" and enduring pop tunes like \"That Lucky Old Sun\" and a spacious reading of \"Willow Weep for Me.\" Green's clarity of melody and tone is well matched by Larry Young's harmonically rich organ, Harold Vick's blues and gospel-inflicted tenor and the propulsive rhythm section of drummer Ben Dixon and conguero Candido Camero. Capturing Green at a creative intersection of hard bop, R\u0026amp;B, and emerging soul-jazz, the album remains prized for its deep grooves, ensemble interplay, and enduring influence within his catalog.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVerve Acoustic Sounds Series titles are mastered from the original analog tapes by Matthew Lutthans, pressed on 180-gram vinyl at Quality Record Pressings (QRP) and packaged in high-quality tip-on gatefold jackets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSide A\u003cbr\u003e1.
