Grits, Beans And Greens captures the Tubby Hayes Quartet at the height of their creative powers, with legendary saxophonist Tubby Hayes leading a session recorded in June 1969 at London’s Philips studios. Long thought lost, this album stands as a testament to Hayes’ brilliance as both a composer and improviser, offering a vivid snapshot of British jazz on the brink of its own artistic independence.
This 2019 release draws directly from the original tapes, carefully mastered at Gearbox Records to deliver every nuance of the session’s soulful interplay and rhythmic energy. With its dynamic ensemble work and striking clarity, Grits, Beans And Greens is an essential listen for jazz aficionados eager to experience Hayes’ unmistakable fluency and passion in a newly rediscovered, historically significant recording.
