Default Ike Quebec - Blues for Charlie on Blue Note



Ike Quebec, sax player, is one of the first musicians signed onto the Blue Note label by Alfred Lion.

I love Blue Note. They’re one of the few record companies that didn’t rip off their artists. Lion wasn’t known for taking undeserved writing credits like Berry at Motown and what’s-his-face at Chess Records. Blue Note also didn’t take advantage of their female artists like Berry at Motown and whats-his-face at Chess and so many others.

Grant Green wrote this song and is the guitarist on this album. I think the “Charlie” in this title is for Charlie Christian, another guitar player, who influenced Grant Green, not Charlie Parker as many people mistakenly believe.
