		The veteran swing guitarist Tiny Grimes had relatively few chances to record during the '60s and '70s, particularly for American labels.
		Guitarist Tiny Grimes was in a bit of obscurity when he had the opportunity to first record for Prestige in 1958.
		The performances are rounded out by two more good blues from Grimes, Benny Goodman\'s "A Smooth One" and a memorable version of "April in Paris" that is executed with a light, swinging touch.

		His "Tiny's Boogie," made at WOR studios in New York on Aug. 14, 1946, is described as the first recorded instance of the genre.
		Grimes was interviewed on the eve of a 1987 performance at the Los Angeles Press Club where he appeared with an equally venerable poet of the plectrum, John Collins – a fellow alumnus of the Tatum trio and a familiar figure on L.A. bandstands before his death in 2001.
		And Tiny was still playing his chosen guitar -- the same four string model he had when Charlie Christian used to borrow his instrument up in Harlem – instead of the six-stringers employed by the rest of the jazz cohort.

		Leader Tiny Grimes may be playing a four-string guitar, but his Charlie Christian-influenced sound is big, fluid, and expressive.

		With the exception of a Sonet album from 1977, this was guitarist Tiny Grimes' last recording as a leader.
		Grimes is surprisingly still in peak form and is well showcased in a quartet with pianist Lloyd Glenn, bassist Roland Lobligeois and drummer Panama Francis.
		Although there are some blues, as usual, Grimes also gets to stretch out "Lester Leaps In" and "I Found a New Baby," which show how strong a swing-based improviser he could be.

		Tiny Grimes was one of the earliest jazz electric guitarists to be influenced by Charlie Christian, and he developed his own swinging style.
		In September 1944, he led his first record date, using Charlie Parker; highlights include the instrumental "Red Cross" and Grimes' vocal on "Romance Without Finance (Is a Nuisance)." He also recorded for Blue Note in 1946, and then put together an RandB-oriented group, "the Rockin' Highlanders," that featured the tenor of Red Prysock during 1948-1952.
		Although maintaining a fairly low profile, Tiny Grimes was active up until his death, playing in an unchanged swing/bop transitional style.

		Hawkins catches his first musical break and takes a job as musician and chauffeur with bandleader and veteran jazz guitarist Tiny Grimes who has recorded extensively for Atlantic and Gotham and who is already reknowned for his contribution to the enduring brilliance of the Art Tatum Trio.
		Jay "walked up to Tiny and asked for a job" and is hired for Tiny Grimes' Rocking Highlanders on vocals, sax and keyboards, in Jay's own words: "As Tiny's valet, body guard, dog walker, piano player and blues singer and all this for $30 a week!...
		Grimes is quick to admit that donning tammies and tartan was a good career move ("the kilts really did it for us, they were the best threads on the scene") but he is soon upstaged by his young vocalist whose stage apparel often resembles something out of an ecclesiastical shop window.

		Summers and George Grant (recorded here for Gotham Records under the pseudonym of Haji Baba), along with an unissued and much wilder take of his own "Call of the Wild." Not the place to start a Tiny Grimes collection, but a nice one to add to the collection along the way.

		Highlights from Tiny Grimes' Gotham recordings (issued on Krazy Kat LP's 804, 817 and 821) are brought forth on this 20 track CD.
		As the plentiful instrumental cuts show, Tiny was one of the most distinctive and accomplished RandB guitarists, with a forceful horn-like approach similar to T-Bone Walker's but even more inventive and fluid.
		Grimes' presence on some of the cuts is questionable at best but he turns in a raucous instrumental and some driving accompaniment on tracks by J.B. Summers and Haji Baba.

		This is a pretty pedestrian, if, as usual, enjoyable blues shuffle, with, this time around, all of the "important" quintet members (that is, everybody bar the rhythm section) show off their skills, and considering that Grimes was easily the one major star in the combo, that wasn't such a hot idea.
		Even the guitar part itself is pretty camouflaged, and somehow it seems that everybody got so taken in by the tune's lazy 'midnight' vibe that they carried the minimalism a bit too far.
		This, unlike the Tony Grimes tune of the (nearly) same name, is the same blues number that most people will be familiar with from the Creedence version, although the lyrics are a real messy hodge-podge that Big Joe might have improvised on the spot, I have no idea.

		On this effort, along with customary nods to the Memphis and Chicago Masters, "Dangerous" Dave Haley pays tasteful tributes to swing champions Tiny Grimes, Bill Jennings, and the Great Billy Butler.

		The format was useful in clubs where drums and horns weren’t allowed, and—as is liable to be forgotten—its beginnings in the late 1930s coincided with the arrival of and manufacturer-driven fad for the electric guitar.
		Soon there was the King Cole Trio, which lasted through the early fame of its pianist’s singing, and as an even greater jazz pianist Art Tatum joined forces with Slam Stewart and Tiny Grimes, in a format with popular attractions.
		In a recent BBC Radio 3 feature on Cole, Brian Priestley attributed the trio format to him, and even the block chords style taken up by George Shearing—who himself knows better and refers to its real founder, Milt Buckner.

		This enjoyable outing for Muse features Grimes in a sextet with tenor saxophonist Houston Person and pianist Harold Mabern; these versions of "Profoundly Blue" and "Tiny's Exercise" are among the highpoints.
		Grimes also takes an effective vocal on the blues "Backslider" although the use of electric bass and congas makes the music seem a bit dated in spots.
