Grant Green is a phenomenal player tho, I think youll like his style of playing. He pioneered a lot of Soul Jazz and Jazz Funk.
His song "Down Here on the Ground" is the song sampled by ATCQ for "Vibes and Stuff" from Low End Theory

me n the cats i ran with at the time..useta run into dj quik..dj unknown, slip and a couple of others at the record shops all the time...sigs n vinal always had the good shyt..
i knew of the samples because...my uncles would always stop whatever im playin and be like nikka that aint shyt but betty wright(when i was playin tha hoe in u).. n they pull out their records..n give me a crash course..
