Ray Crawford - I Know Pres

Review by J.B. Taylor

Ray Crawford's album I Know Pres is a stunning tribute to the legendary jazz saxophonist Lester Young. The album features Crawford's impeccable guitar work, accompanied by bassist Red Mitchell and drummer Frank Butler.

The album's opening track, "Lester Leaps In," sets the tone with Crawford's smooth, melodic guitar lines, and Mitchell and Butler's tight rhythm section. The trio's chemistry is evident throughout the album, as they effortlessly navigate through Young's classic tunes like "Jumpin' With Symphony Sid" and "Lester's Blues."

Crawford's guitar playing is both virtuosic and soulful, paying homage to Young's signature style while still showcasing his own unique voice. His solo on "Lester's Blues" is particularly impressive, showcasing his technical prowess and emotional depth.
