A completely unreleased fiery Latin session by unforgotten trumpet genius Roy Hargrove, who died in 2018! In April of 1998, fresh off their Grammy win for Best Latin Jazz Performance for their debut effort, „Habana“, Roy Hargrove’s band Crisol went into a studio in Guadalupe to record their follow-up album. Until now, that album, „Grande-Terre“, has never been heard.  Featuring an all-star band of Roy’s long-time collaborators, including trombonist Frank Lacy, pianist Larry Willis and drummer Willie Jones III, „Grande-Terre“ showcases Hargrove’s powerful playing, his exquisite writing and the band’s incredible energy.
