Johnny Griffin/The Kerry Dancers(Riverside, 1961)
This is Griffin's masterpiece.
You can see that they are not just playing a lot, but are slowly and carefully progressing with their performance.
Barry Harris's piano is also great.
Although he is full of sadness and joy, he plays his role calmly without becoming sentimental.
This it the album I want to listen to when I'm dribing by the seaside.
