Ike Quebec sits in jazz heaven rightly alongside Webster and Hawkins and Young as great saxophonists who paint pictures in the imagination as their music floats round the room.
Blue and Sentimental is perhaps his masterpiece featuring Paul Chambers on Bass, Philly Joe Jones on drums and Grant Green on guitar and the spaces sing as sweetly as the music.
Quebec is an unsung hero of Blue Note, first recording with them in 1944 he acted amongst many other things as a talent scout introducing countless up and coming names to Blue Note - including Dexter Gordon.
This album is one of the great jazz albums of all time and any collection missing it has a serious space - easily remedied by purchasing this stunning RVG edition.

A thoroughly enjoyable album. A relaxed small group setting, some great tunes pleasingly delivered by players at the top of their game. Tenorist Ike Quebec has a rich, compelling style for which the sparse guitar work of Grant Green makes a perfect foil. Paul Chambers (bass) and drummer Philly Joe Jones underplay beautifully achieving intimacy but with taut dynamics - nothing bland about the session. Blue & Sentimental, the album's eponymous opening track, sets the scene. There are echos a-plenty of the original Basie recording and Quebec harkens back to Herschel Evans' saxophone style and tone. All the tunes are memorable. Blues for Charlie is Grant Green's tribute to Charlie Christian. There are some fine ballads and a version of Cole Porter's It's allright with me which concludes the session in a tastefully rollicking way. Just great!Blue & Sentimental
