Trombonist Al Grey, a master of the wah-wah mute, had a rare opportunity to record with a major label in 1976. But Columbia almost lost the master, and when it was finally released in 1983, one of the principals (tenor saxophonist Jimmy Forrest) had already passed away. Despite its delayed arrival, this upbeat set (dominated by soulful blues but also including two standards) was worth the wait. Grey and Forrest, the principal soloists, are heard as part of a nonet, although there are brief spots for trumpeter Waymond Reed and pianist Ray Bryant

Struttin' and Shoutin' is an album by trombonist Al Grey recorded in 1976 but not released on Columbia Records until 1983. The Rolling Stone Jazz Record Guide said "the entire date has an energetic but familiar feel".
