The man, the myth, the legend.. Papa Jo. I loved your Jazz drummers sessions with Mel Lewis. The Jo Jones story in it was inspiring.. I’d loved to have witnessed it.
Jo Jones, Walter Page, Freddie Green et le Count, une des plus belles rythmique de l'histoire du jazz.....et puis quel solo du Prez, immense ténor devant l'éternel.
Great to hear Prez in his prime and not just for 20 seconds on a 78 record. That solo is as good as it gets.

The legend Jo Jones ❤🥁
Top jazz find of the century!!!
The musical, anecdotal, and educational value of this is inestimable!
You can hear the whole rhythm section tighten up when Pres begins his solo, they know things are about to get sharp, rhythmically.
Prez, the beste sax player of the world!!!!
❤The President❤

Amazing Lester on After You’ve Gone!
The version of "After You'Ve Gone" just blew me away. What fabulous choruses by Prez! Thank you, Loren.
First tenor saxist seems to be Don Byas. Great musician, too, but what a difference in class compared to the later Pres solo.
RARE!
Jo Jones is inventing bebop drumming behind Pres, as well!
What a wonderful surprise! Thanks for sharing this Loren
Thx Loren. That Lester solo My lord
Lester sounds so good! Sound, ideas and swing! Thank you Loren, I’m Rob Zantay (Doug’s brother and the first band Kenny Kirkland played in)😊
