Lester Young - Verve Jazz Masters 30 (1994)

With Coleman Hawkins and John Coltrane, Lester Young makes up what could be called the Holy Trinity of jazz tenor saxophonists. On this Verve compilation, we get a wonderful overview of Young's post- Count Basie Orchestra output. Selections featured here range from dates recorded in 1943 up through 1956, three years before the musician's death.

Young's cool-toned, behind-the-beat phrasing is in evidence on all 15 tracks, from the Latin inflected "In a Little Spanish Town ('Twas on a Night Like This)," through the relaxed swing of "Peg O' My Heart," to the uptempo bounce of "All of Me." This CD sizzles with great jazz performances.
