The Congregation (2026 Reissue)
More Info
The Congregation finds Johnny Griffin at full throttle, backed by a band that refuses to ease up. Kenny Drew brings a restless piano, Paul Chambers anchors the groove, while Art Blakey makes the drums roar. Griffin’s tenor is fast, sharp, almost insolent, yet always controlled. Everything moves at high voltage, lean and direct. A burning group record where hard bop becomes a matter of urgency, commitment, and relentless forward motion.
