Lester Left Town
Originally recorded by Art Blakey & The Jazz Messengers in 1960, this Wayne Shorter classic was written in honor of Lester Young and swings hard from beginning to end. Mark Taylor's exciting chart opens with the melody carried by the trombones and tenors, and closes with a dramatic building section leading to a powerful finish. Along the way are inventive twists and turns, and solo space for trombone and tenor sax.
