Jimmy Forrest - Black Forrest

This 1972 LP, a complement to All The Gin Is Gone, released the remainder of tenor saxophonist Jimmy Forrest's two Delmark sessions, including four alternate takes and five other songs. Forrest sounds fine, guitarist Grant Green was making his debut on record, and the rhythm section (pianist Harold Mabern, bassist Gene Ramey and drummer Elvin Jones) plays up to par. Get All The Gin Is Gone first, and then, if one wants to hear the rest of the story, this set. ~ Scott Yano Read More
