Reaching Out is an album by jazz drummer Dave Bailey which was originally released on the Jazztime label in 1961. The album is notable for featuring some of the earliest recorded performances of guitarist Grant Green and was re-released under Green's name as Green Blues in 1973 on the Muse label and under the original title on the Black Lion label with 3 alternate takes in 1989.
Allmusic awarded the album 3½ stars with a review stating, "The cool, spacious, thoughtful and unhurried sound of Haynes dominates this recording, as Green barely comes up for air on solos or the occasional joint melody line. Billy Gardner, better known as an organist, plays beautifully and with feeling on the piano, while bassist Ben Tucker and the great drummer Dave Bailey team up to provide the perfect, steady rhythmic foundation so essential to great mainstream jazz expressionism".
