Though not as well known as giants Ben Webster and Don Byas, the late Ike Quebec was a major stylist whose specialty was the big-toned, cozy, breathy, romantic tenor saxophone. Quebec made a series of soul-jazz sessions for Blue Note, as well as this 1962 rarity on which he had a go at the au courant bossa nova sound. Accompanied by the burnished guitar of Kenny Burrell and the Latin spice of Willie Bobo, Quebec brings his emotive approach to the sly, cool expression that isbossa nova. The contrast is exhilarating, making for a pleasant surprise for fans of the Brazilian style as well as forQuebec fans accustomed to his usual bluesy groove. This 2007 remastered edition includes three alternate takes.
