Lucky Thompson was One of the Great Tenors to Emerge During the 1940s and One of the First "Modern" Soprano Saxophonists (Taking Up the Instrument Prior to John Coltrane). During 1944-1945, He Gained Some Attention with Count Basie (Where Thompson Had Succeeded his Main Influence, Don Byas). Although his Large Tone Looked Toward the Swing Era, Thompson's Advanced Improvising Fit in Well with Bop Players. He Settled on the West Coast after Leaving Basie, was Hired as "Insurance" by Dizzy Gillespie in Case Charlie Parker Did Not Show Up (He Recorded with Both), and Cut Many Sessions. This Proper Introduction Presents the Cream of his Late 1940s Work, Solo and with the Big Bands.Customer Reviews:
