Reception
The Washington Post's Mike Joyce wrote: "Jazz organist Jimmy McGriff demonstrates on The Groover that no musician has a monopoly on the blues. Certainly not these blues -- the late-night, after-hours kind that once routinely spilled from tired jukeboxes at closing time ... The Groover lives up to its title and a tradition well worth renewing".[4]
