Idle Moments LP

Grant Green tracked Idle Moments across two sessions in November 1963 at Van Gelder's studio, backed by Joe Henderson, Bobby Hutcherson, Duke Pearson, Bob Cranshaw and Al Harewood. The nearly fifteen-minute title track, a slow burn in C minor, was meant to run shorter but got left whole for the chemistry in the room. AllMusic gave it five stars, and critic Steve Huey named it the record to start with if you're building a Grant Green collection.
