(5 out of 5 stars)

"For those who are wondering, Who's Steve Griggs? and, Is this really worth $18? Well, let me tell you that it's some of the best jazz I have ever heard!!, no joke. Sure, we all trumpet the golden days -50's & 60's- but great jazz is being made today and these recordings, vol 1+2 by Steve Griggs prove it!! And how's Elvin's playing here? Better than anything I've heard him on through 90s', it's right up there with his album, Lush Life. The liner notes take you through the journey of how the album was made- like the space, a converted barn in California/ 2'in Tape to digital,enc. By takng chances with new recordings you will discover new music, musicians, emotions, and expression. Drop the bread jazz lovers, and enjoy this unique work of art. cheers -jb"
