Merrimans' Playhouse Jazz Performance Series presents the Don Lerman Quartet!
The Don Lerman Quartet presents a special salute to the music of Lucky Thompson. Don Lerman will be on saxophone, Jim Pickley on piano, Darrell Tidaback on bass, and Dan Degucz on drums. They will perform several of Thompson's original compositions including "The Scene is Clean," "No-Good Man Blues," and "The Plain But Simple Truth." This quartet performed a well-received concert and tribute to Vince Guaraldi one year ago, in January 2016. Tenor saxophonist Eli "Lucky" Thompson was a prominent jazz performer during the big band and bebop eras who was called "one of the great treasures of jazz" by one commentator. Over his playing career of from 1943 to 1974, Thompson performed and/or recorded with Lionel Hampton, Hot Lips Page, Lucky Millander, Erskin Hawkins, Billy Eckstine, Count Basie, Kenny Dorham, Kenny Clarke, Stan Kenton, Dizzy Gillespie, Milt Jackson, Oscar Pettiford, Art Blakey, Miles Davis, Don Redman, and Thelonius Monk. Thompson, who also lived and performed in Europe for periods of time, recorded over 14 albums as a leader, including his celebrated album "Lucky Strikes," recorded on the Prestige label in 1964. While Lucky Thompson is not as widely known as many major jazz figures, those aware of his contributions regard him highly, with one commentator calling him "one of the great treasures of jazz."
