Recorded for Muse Records in 1967 as Grant Green was on an extended recording hiatus -- it was his only record between 1965s His Majesty, King Funk, his only album for Verve, and 1969s Carryin On, his return to Blue Note -- Iron City actually captures the guitarist in fine form, jamming on six blues and R&B numbers with his longtime cohorts, organist Big John Patton and drummer Ben Dixon. The trio members had long ago perfected their interplay, and they just cook on Iron City, working a hot groove on each song. Even the slow blues Motherless Child has a distinct swing in its backbeat, but most of the album finds the trio tearing through uptempo grooves with a vengeance. Greens playing is a bit busier than normal and he solos far more often than Patton, who lays back through most of the album, providing infectious vamps and lead lines. The two styles mesh perfectly with Dixons deft drumming, resulting in a fine, overlooked date that showcases some of Greens hottest, bluesiest playing. Tracks: A1 Iron City A2 Samba De Orfeu A3 Old Man Moses B1 Put On Your High Heels Sneaker B2 Sometimes I Feel Like A Motherless Child B3 Work Song Personnel: Drums – Ben Dixon Guitar – Grant Green Organ – Big John Patton
