Really Groovin' is an album by saxophonist Willis Jackson which was recorded in 1961 and released on the Prestige label.
Reception
Allmusic awarded the album 3 stars stating "A fine, soulful jazz date, mostly slow blues and ballads, from one of the kings of honky-tonk saxophone. Jackson's smooth, Ben Webster-ish tenor playing is seldom surprising, but always satisfying".
