Lester Young - Vol 8
Review by Rajeev Singh
Vol 8 by Lester Young is a jazz album that showcases the iconic saxophonist's talents. The album features tracks that were recorded in the 1940s and 1950s, and it captures the essence of Young's unique and soulful sound.
The album opens with "Ad Lib Blues," a fast-paced track that showcases Young's impressive improvisational skills. The saxophonist's smooth and melodic playing is complemented by the swinging rhythm section, which includes pianist John Lewis and drummer Jo Jones.
Other standout tracks on the album include "Just You, Just Me," a romantic ballad that features Young's tender and emotive playing, and "Blues 'n Bells," a bluesy number that highlights the saxophonist's ability to convey a range of emotions through his music.
