It's All Right With Me

About

Spanning 1.67 choruses of the 72-bar AABA' form at a brisk 342 BPM with a swing feel in D, the solo runs approximately 1:26. Griffin blazes through two full choruses to open, his tenor saxophone cutting through the changes with extraordinary technical command and unwavering swing feel. This is the second of two solos Johnny Griffin takes on this recording. Johnny Griffin was 27 to 28 years old at the time of this 1956 recording.
