Album

Here is practically everything tenor sax giant Lester Young recorded for the Alladin label in the mid- to late-'40s, and the most obvious summation of the contrasting sessions is to say flat-out that the leader is a jazz genius, and everything that he recorded is worth a listen. That's true, but there are many other reasons why this is such an interesting collection. Lester Young. The Complete Aladdin Sessions. Although it has often been written that the cool-toned tenor saxophonist Lester Young's experiences with racism in the military during 1944-1945 so scarred him that he never played at the same musical level as he had previously, the music on this essential two-CD reissue disproves that theory. It is true that his attitude toward life was affected and Young became somewhat self-destructive, but his postwar solos rank with the greatest work of his career.

Lester Young - The Complete Aladdin Sessions Album. Artist: Lester Young. Album: The Complete Aladdin Sessions. East of the Sun. Lester Young - Complete Aladdin Sessions - Cd. Lester Young recorded for the Aladdin label between December 1945 and December 1947, leading a series of small groups that would range in size from quintets to a septet. While Young's solos were a marvelous paradox of the languid and the taut, his approach to putting a group together could be simply casual. His sidemen here come from both the ranks of the justly celebrated and the journeymen, whose names have all but disappeared from jazz history. The bands can include collisions of swing era stalwarts and dedicated boppers. Lester Willis Young August 27, 1909 March 15, 1959, nicknamed Pres or Prez, was an American jazz tenor saxophonist and occasional clarinetist. Coming to prominence while a member of Count Basie's orchestra, Young was one of the most influential players on his instrument. In contrast to many of his hard-driving peers, Young played with a relaxed, cool tone and used sophisticated harmonies, using what one critic called a free-floating style, wheeling and diving like a gull, banking with low.
