200744 - Earl Grant - Ebb Tide





Thanks to Lex for the cover scan.

Somebody requested Earl Grant but this is the only album I have. A good organ based jazz lounge album. He does a killer version of House of Bamboo which is not on this album but I can upload this track if enough people want it.

The cover is obviously not the original as I don't have scans.

Here's some more info:

LINER NOTES:
Earl Grant is a man of many varied talents, and a man who pokes fist-sized holes in the "Jack-of-all-trades" theory. He's tops in everything.

Organist-pianist-vocalist Grant's rich musical background has given him the solid technical foundation on which to build his colorful and inventive style of delightful improvisation.

In this album, Mr. Grant takes to organ and piano. His interpretations of ever-popular standards such as the title song, Ebb Tide, Stormy Weather, Misty, Canadian Sunset, I'm In The Mood For Love, and the many others, represent an instrumental performance without peer.

As Earl Grant characteristically coaxes even the most subtle tones and innuendos out of his instruments, the album is further distinguished by having superbly exploited the full depth and many of the unusual effects in sound made available by today's modern techniques and equipment.

I'm sure your rip of this album is much cleaner then mine. I barely dusted mine when I did it.

Just so you know, that is the original scan. I picked up my copy for seventy-five cents from a thrift shop.
