Grover Washington, Jr.

All the King’s Horses is one of Grover Washington, Jr.’s most polished and accessible albums from his late-’70s Kudu era. Coming off the success of A Secret Place and preceding Reed Seed, this record highlights Grover’s sultry, melodic saxophone voice amid lush, groove-driven arrangements that blend jazz sophistication with soul and R&B sensibilities.

With Bob James’ trademark Kudu-era production, the album straddles the line between jazz fusion, smooth jazz, and funky soul, making it both radio-friendly and musically substantial.
