For those who think that Lester peaked when he was with Lady Day, just listen to this album. The excellent background of the Oscar Peterson Trio is reason enough to buy this CD, but for Lester fans, it's a must. From the opening strains of Ad Lib Blues, Lester's melodic strains permeate and complement Oscar's sublime piano playing.
The Jazz standards on this CD give as shining example of how to improvise without even breaking into a sweat (I thought Nat Cole's version of Stardust was the best, but Lester excels). Lester's so laid back, he's horizontal, but it makes excellent jazz listening.
Someone once told me that they loved jazz, but didn't know which albums to buy. This album is so late-night / sensuous / laid back that I'd suggest it immediately to anyone who loves 'dinner jazz' but wants to explore further.
One down side. Lester's singing on (It Takes) Two to Tango. You can take it or leave it.

I want to start by saying that if you are new to Lester Young - buy this album! Critics often remark on the fact that Pres was past his best by the time of this recording but that clearly is not true if this album is anything to go by.
It really is a sublime performance from the tenor giant. His ballad playing his an education, his up-tempo numbers seem so effortless, his tone almost ethereal - his talent is an embarresment of riches. As for his support on the record, well, its enough to know its Oscar Petersons band!
As for his singing (well, scatting), I think that alone is reason enough to buy it. Who cares how good it is - where else will you ever hear such a thing? The sound quality is also very good for a 1952 recording, the remastering excellent.
I love this CD so much, it really is a desert island disc. Saxophone players should include this as a part of their education, as indeed i have.

my partner and i heard this album in a bar and had to ask for its name, it was so chilled and nice
don't need to be a jazz expert, it's just perfect to listen to in evenings or sunday mornings, or while reading :)
