Description: Billy Bauer LETS HAVE A SESSION - THE BILLY BAUER QUARTETS Personnel: Billy Bauer (g), Tony Aless, Andrew Ackers (p), Arnold Fishkin, Milt Hinton (b), Don Lamond, Osie Johnson (d) Reference: FSRCD 516 Billy Bauer was the most celebrated guitarist in early modern jazz, winning more awards than any other on the instrument and establishing an enviable reputation as a member of the Woody Herman rhythm section. As a longtime sideman for Lennie Tristano and Lee Konitz, he made some brilliant recordings showcasing his magisterial authority with contrapuntal lines. Despite his long career as a sideman, he did only two recording dates as a leader, both quartet sessions, compiled in this CD. In them he managed at all times to extract the greatest tenderness from his instrument. Playing with soul, swinging subtly, straight ahead or lightly as the need arose, he accomplished the rare and difficult feat of combining good jazz with accessibility. Tracklisting: 01.
