Paul Quinichette was one of Lester Young's most unusual disciples. He adopted Lester's sound of the 50's so well that he was known throughout his career by the nickname of the "Vice-Prez". It was something logical that Paul ended up working for Count Basie and his New Testament Band and became one of main solo voices of the orchestra. During his golden age in the 50's, Quinichette recorded abundantly with his own bands for many labels. In this collection we present his complete early recordings from July 1952 to February 1954 for EmArcy, Dale and Decca.
