Griffin combined the big, hard-edged tone of Rollins and Dexter Gordon with the blues roots of his Chicago upbringing--the result was a distinctively agile, speedy, and assertive style. This BEST OF collects Griffin's recordings for the Riverside and Fantasy labels circa 1953-78 (leaning toward the earlier years, as he relocated to Europe in 1963). Mostly bebop standards, BEST gives a dandy sampling of his early recordings as a leader--it's some of the best straight-up hard bop extant.</li></ul>Professional Reviews: Record Collector (magazine) (p.90) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "[This] compilation cherry-picks the best moments from his recordings for Riverside in the 50s and 60s."Producer: Nick Phillips (Compilation)Format: CD (1 Disc); StereoStudio/Live: StudioRelease Date: 19 May, 2009Label: RiversideDimensions: 14.4 x 1 x 16.2 centimeters (0.06 kg)
