Impeccable Lester, 2009-09-29
On the 3rd. December 1956 Lester Young started a six night residency at Olivia Davis`s Patio Lounge in Washington DC, accompanied by the Bill Potts Trio. Fortunately, Potts recorded the proceedings, which were released in 1980 by Norman Grantz`s Pablo label. The recording is surprisingly good, as not only the saxophone and piano but also the bass and drums can be heard very clearly. The recordings also disprove, once and for all, that Lester wasn`t playing very well in the 1950s. On these recordings I think that he plays as well as at any time in his career, and that these cds rank alongside his best recordings with Basie, the 1952 session with Oscar Peterson, and the Aladdin sessions. Furthermore,here is Lester Young playing "live",to an audience,not at a studio session. Lester`s phrases are smooth, and they flow effortlessly from one to the next. His sound is impeccable, with some very nice, clear, low notes. All of the tunes on vol.1 are worth hearing, but the particularly outstanding tracks are: "When You`re Smiling", "I Can`t Get Started", on which he repeats a middle eight phrase from the Oscar Peterson session, and "DB Blues". The trio accompany Lester with a nice relaxed, swinging, style; as exemplified by pianist Bill Potts, who, at times,when playing block chords, sounds a little like Dave Brubeck. My only complaint about these recordings is that, for my taste, there are, perhaps, too many bass and drum solos.
