*2024 stock* "Some of Lester Young’s sessions made in the mid-1950s find him in bad shape, due to a combination of personal problems and alcoholism that would prematurely end his life on March 15, 1959 at the age of 49. However, when producer Norman Granz had the brilliant idea of reuniting him with his old musical companions Roy Eldridge, Vic Dickenson, Teddy Wilson, Freddie Green, Gene Ramey and Jo Jones, the result was a highly spirited and happy date that is presented here in its entirety." - jazzmessengers.com
