Tracks list

Grant Greens second session with organist Larry Young, Street of Dreams brings
back drummer Elvin Jones and adds Bobby Hutcherson on vibes for a mellow, dreamy
album that lives up to its title. There are only four selections, all standards
and all around eight to ten minutes long, and the musicians approach them as
extended mood pieces, creating a marvelously light, cool atmosphere thats
maintained throughout the record. Hutcherson is the perfect addition for this
project, able to blend in with the modal advancement of the rest of the ensemble
while adding his clear, shimmering tone to the overall texture of the album. All
the musicians play with a delicate touch thats quite distinct from the modal
soul-jazz on Talkin About; its not so much romantic as thoughtful and
introspective, floating along as if buoyed by clouds. There arent really any
fireworks or funky grooves, as the music is all of a piece, which makes it
difficult to choose the highlights from French songwriter Charles Trenets I Wish
You Love, Lazy Afternoon, the title track, or Somewhere in the Night. Its
another fine record in a discography filled with them, and yet another
underrated Green session.
