Blues and Other Shades of Green is an album by trombonist Urbie Green which was recorded in 1955 and released on the ABC-Paramount label.

[1][2] Jason Ankeny of AllMusic states: "Blues and Other Shades of Green casts Urbie Green in a rare small-group setting, assembling a stellar quintet ... for a crisp, coolly efficient session that leaves just enough wiggle room to allow all of the individual contributors their moment in the spotlight.

Green wields both the slide and the valve trombone here, and the simplicity of the arrangements affords his lovely, direct tone the perfect platform to shine".
