Description
Ike Quebec – "The Complete 45 Sessions (Blue Note Tone Poet Edition)". The Complete Blue Note 45 Sessions of Ike Quebec collects a phenomenal body of work produced between 1959-62 by a key player in the Blue Note Story. The saxophonist had recorded for Blue Note and served as a talent scout in the 1940s before personal problems forced him off the scene. Alfred Lion began to reintroduce Quebec's music to jazz fans in 1959 with a series of 45 jukebox singles that were well received and revealed a formidable stylist very much at the top of his game with a full-throated, yet relaxed sound ideally suited to a range of material from ballads to blues. This Blue Note Tone Poet Edition is produced by Joe Harley in all-analog from Rudy Van Gelder's original master tapes.
