Hi Mitch,
Johnny Griffin is definitely worth seeking out, they're so many talented jazz musicians to discover and appreciate. For example a few other tenor saxophonist (Griffin's instrument). Don Byas, Sonny Stitt,Jimmy Heath, Teddy Edwards, Zoot Sims,Ike Quebec,Oliver Nelson, Wayne Shorter, Booker Ervin, Joe Henderson, James Carter. You have 4, 000 LPs so it's likely that you have some of these players already. You can easily do a short list such as this for many different instruments used in jazz music. Mitch I imagine that you have quite a few gems in your collection.
Charles,
