Ike Quebec - It Might As Well Be Spring (RVG Edition)
Ike Quebec, tenor sax
Freddie Roach, organ
Milt Hinton, bass
Al Harewood, drums
Two weeks after Ike Quebec recorded his comeback album
Heavy Soul for Blue Note, he was back at the Van
Gelder Studio with the same band (Freddie Roach, Milt
Hinton and Al Harewood), making a second album. The
confidence paid off because It Might As Well Be Spring
is every bit the classic the first album proved to be.
Quebec's big-toned, vulnerable tenor playing is a
thing to behold, as his heart-stopping version of the
titled tune, "Lover Man" and "Willow Weep For Me"
attest. "Easy - Don't Hurt" is one of his blues
masterpieces.
Orinally recorded 1961
