Every jazz fan knew Idle Moments . The 1964 Blue Note album was a pillow of a record—slow, blue, suspended in amber. The title track, all eleven minutes of it, was a masterpiece of hesitant melody. But the lore said something was missing. The session ran long. They cut multiple takes. The released album was a collage of the best parts. The real take, the one where Grant Green’s guitar drifted into some other, sadder galaxy, was rumored to have been erased.

Grant Green died of a heart attack on January 31st, 1979. But October 12th, 1978? That was the day his second wife filed for divorce. The day he sold his gold-top Les Paul for heroin money. The day, according to a single police blotter from Englewood, New Jersey, that he was found wandering the Palisades Parkway barefoot, muttering about a "session that never ended." -RMU 1787 - Grant Green - Idle Moments 1963 .rar-
