The title of this CD refers to the sound and influence of Lester Young, the
first master of the subtle "cool school" tenor playing that both of these
saxophonists favor. Florida-based Jeff Rupert plays in a smooth Stan
Getz-influenced style while Boston legend George Garzone throws knottier and
more abstract figures into his playing. The two mesh nicely, whether seamlessly
fitting together on tunes like the bossa nova "Bahia" or chasing one another on
an up-tempo romp through "Without A Song." On "Detour Ahead" and "The Red Door"
especially, the contrast stands out as Rupert dances over the rhythm in
straight, freewheeling lines while Garzone throws sour inflections and freak
noises into his potent solos. [...]
