Illinois Jacquet (Jean-Baptiste Illinois Jacquet, October 31, 1922 - July 22, 2004) is an American jazz tenor saxophonist. The brother of the trumpeter Russell Jacquet and the drummer Linton Jacquet.
Illinois began to perform in 1939 in the orchestra of Milton Larkin. In 1942 he participated in the recording of the hit "Flying Home" with the orchestra Lionel Hampton. In 1993 he played the song "C-Jam Blues", on the lawn near the White House, together with President Bill Clinton at the inauguration of the latter. Collaborated with Arnett Cobb, Dexter Gordon, Cab Calloway, Charles Mingus, Lester Young, Count Basie and many others. Lester Young (27.08.1909 - 15.03.1959) is an American jazz tenor saxophonist and clarinetist. His virtuosic improvisations, which were remarkably smoothly phrased, influenced many saxophonists of the second half of the 20th century.
Personnel: Illinois Jacquet (saxophone), Lester Young (saxophone)
