Lester Young And His Band - These Foolish Things Lesters Be Bop Boogie
Review by Southern Guy
Lester Young and His Band's album, These Foolish Things Lesters Be Bop Boogie, is a masterpiece of jazz music. The album features Young's signature saxophone playing, which is both soulful and sophisticated. The album is a perfect blend of classic jazz standards, such as "These Foolish Things" and "I Can't Get Started," and original compositions, such as "Lester's Be Bop Boogie" and "Lester's Dream."
The album's sound is characterized by Young's smooth and mellow saxophone playing, which is accompanied by a tight and lively rhythm section. The band's performances are energetic and full of improvisation, which showcases their musical prowess. The album's production is excellent, capturing the band's live sound and energy.
