He was born in Newark, New Jersey in 1919 and began playing the saxophone at the age of 11. Quebec's career began in the 1930s when he performed with the Don Redman Orchestra and the Andy Kirk Orchestra.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn 1941, Quebec signed with Blue Note Records and began to record as a leader. His first session was held on November 20, 1941 and his first album, Blue Note BLP 1533, was released in 1948. His Blue Note catalog consists of 11 albums and numerous singles. Some of his most famous albums include Blue and Sentimental, Bossa Nova Soul Samba, and Heavy Soul.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSome of Quebec's standout songs include \"Blue and Sentimental,\" \"It Might As Well Be Spring,\" and \"Soul Samba.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAn interesting fact about Ike Quebec is that he was an avid collector of Latin and Brazilian records, which heavily influenced his own musical style.

The saxophonist had recorded a series of 78s for Alfred Lion in the 1940s and also served as a talent scout who encouraged Lion to record important figures of the emerging bebop scene including Thelonious Monk and Bud Powell. After a difficult period through the 1950s during which Quebec fell off the scene, Lion reconnected with his friend and began to reintroduce Quebec's music to jazz fans in 1959 with a series of 45 jukebox singles that were well received and revealed a formidable stylist very much at the top of his game. His full-throated yet utterly relaxed sound was ideally suited to a wide range of material from ballads to blues. The success of Quebec's comeback inspired Lion to keep going, capturing four sessions of material with a revolving cast of musicians that yielded classic tracks including \"A Light Reprieve,\" \"Blue Monday,\" and \"What a Difference a Day Makes.\" Quebec would also go on to record several album sessions including the timeless soul jazz classics Heavy Soul, Blue \u0026amp; Sentimental, and Bossa Nova Soul Samba, capping a prolific end to a career that would be tragically cut short with his death from lung cancer at age 44 in 1963.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Blue Note Tone Poet Edition is produced by Joe Harley.
