Release dates are subject to alteration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJazz guitarist Grant Green's more than two-decade tenure with Blue Note was broken up by one album for Verve Records: 1965's His Majesty King Funk. This Creed Taylor-produced session offers deeply-felt renditions of Green's topical original \"The Selma March\" and enduring pop tunes like \"That Lucky Old Sun\" and a spacious reading of \"Willow Weep for Me.\" Green's clarity of melody and tone is well matched by Larry Young's harmonically rich organ, Harold Vick's blues and gospel-inflicted tenor and the propulsive rhythm section of drummer Ben Dixon and conguero Candido Camero. Capturing Green at a creative intersection of hard bop, R\u0026amp;B, and emerging soul-jazz, the album remains prized for its deep grooves, ensemble interplay, and enduring influence within his catalog.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVerve Acoustic Sounds Series titles are mastered from the original analog tapes by Matthew Lutthans, pressed on 180-gram vinyl at Quality Record Pressings (QRP) and packaged in high-quality tip-on gatefold jackets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSide A\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Selma March\u003cbr\u003eWillow Weep For Me\u003cbr\u003eSide B\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Cantaloupe Woman\u003cbr\u003eThat Lucky Old Sun (Just Rolls Around Heaven All Day)\u003cbr\u003eDaddy Grapes\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Verve","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57362822365559,"sku":"95708544","price":32.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/0956\/1910\/files\/1_8cfe1b43-c8eb-4fb3-80d1-1710f22822ae.jpg?v=1786281402","url":"https:\/\/thejazzvault.com\/products\/grant-green-his-majesty-king-funk-acoustic-sounds-series-vinyl-lp-pre-order","provider":"The Jazz Vault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
