Matador is an album by American jazz guitarist Grant Green.
[2] It features Green with pianist McCoy Tyner and drummer Elvin Jones (both from John Coltrane’s group), and bassist Bob Cranshaw.
The AllMusic review by Steve Huey stated: "it's a classic and easily one of Green's finest albums.
The group interplay is consistently strong, but really the spotlight falls chiefly on Green, whose crystal-clear articulation flourishes in this setting.
This sound may not be Green's claim to fame, but Matador remains one of his greatest achievements".
