Easy Living (Ike Quebec album)
Easy Living is an album by American saxophonist Ike Quebec recorded in 1962, but not released on the Blue Note label until 1987.[1] The album collects all the material recorded in January 1962, five tracks from which were released in 1981 as Congo Lament.The Allmusic review by Steve Huey awarded the album 4½ stars and stated: "The mood isn't as unified as some of his carefully calibrated romantic dates, but Easy Living offers the two strongest sides of Quebec's musical personality in one place, encapsulating a great deal of what he did best".[2] The Easy Living LP did not contain all the sextet tracks (#1-5) from the Congo Lament session, which can also be found in Bennie Green's Mosaic box set.
