Description: Lester Young by Dave Gelly Used 1st Edition Hardbound - Like New condition Shipping - USPS Media Mail or Local pick up in Middletown, DE Product information:From the incandescent brilliance of his first recordings with Count Basie to the clogged, painful utterances of his last few years, Lester Young’s music embodied the sensibility of a complicated, vulnerable, gentle man. His musical partnership with Billie Holiday produced masterpieces of the jazz art; his solos on Count Basie’s early recordings displayed a mind of subtlety and cunning. Traumatic experiences in the U.S. Army failed to destroy his spirit, but sadness and languor finally overtook him. Lester Young was one of the greatest artists in the history of jazz, and his influence on its development has been incalculable.
