Blue Lester by Lester Young (Savoy, compilation, 1958)
Nothing more to say than thanks, my sentiments exactly.
I too adore Bird of course, and am especially also enamoured of the great Pres, with his magic mournful touch and feel.
Your writing is so... wonderfully musical! Check out Coleman Hawkins (if you haven't already).
There is something incredible about his ability to make the most inobvious phrases seem inevitable. Also, his time was so great, like Errol Garner's.
