Ike Quebec was a talented tenor sax player who recorded some beautiful sides for the Blue Note label in the 1940s and '50s; however, he remains underrated and little-known for his playing. His lasting influence came from his behind-the-scenes work as an A&R man and talent scout for Blue Note, steering them in the direction of a more contemporary repertoire and introducing legends such as Bud Powell, Thelonious Monk, and Dexter Gordon to the label.
