Johnny Griffin - Return Of The Griffin (1979)


personnel:

Johnny Griffin - Tenor Saxophone
Ray Drummond - Bass
Keith Copeland - Drums
Ronnie Mathews - Piano

Johnny Griffin recorded this studio album during his first visit to the United States in 15 years. Accompanied by a very supportive trio (pianist Ronnie Mathews, bassist Ray Drummond and drummer Keith Copeland), the great tenor is in frequently exuberant form on such tunes as "Autumn Leaves," his own "A Monk's Dream" and the funky "The Way It Is." Long one of the underrated masters, Johnny Griffin is heard at the peak of his powers on this modern bop session.~Scott Yanow
