The Latin Bit

The Latin Bit is an album by American jazz guitarist Grant Green featuring performances recorded in 1962 and released on the Blue Note label. It is a loose concept album inspired by Latin American music. It features tenor saxophonist Ike Quebec, pianists Sonny Clark and John Adriano Acea, bassist Wendell Marshall and percussionists Willie Bobo, Garvin Masseaux and “Patato” Valdes.

The Allmusic review by Michael G. Nastos awarded the album 3½ stars and stated "This CD always yielded mixed results for staunch fans of Green, but a revisit shows it to be a credible effort, even if slightly flawed in part".

All compositions by Grant Green except where noted
