In his career, pianist John Lewis always managed to balance his love for bebop, the blues and Bach. In some ways he was the Count Basie of bop in that he used space expertly and made every note count, but Lewis was really in his own musical category, both as a soloist and as the musical director of the Modern Jazz Quartet. These three highly enjoyable CDs are among the highpoints in the always-vital career of John Lewis.
