"... his defining Flying Home solo pointed the way for thousands of aspiring bar-walkers, who learned it note-for-note."
- The Absolute Sound
Illinois Jacquet's honking, screeching tenor saxophone was a cornerstone of the bebop jazz sound but also influenced and inspired two generations of R&B and rock sax players. Jacquet is credited with playing the very first R&B sax solo back when he was a mere teenager in Lionel Hampton's band. Swing's The Thing was Jacquet's debut album on his own, after his stints with Hampton, Cab Calloway, Charles Mingus and Count Basie. Jacquet surrounded himself in the studio with the best of the best session players in jazz at the time and this instrumental album is considered essential listening for Jacquet fans.
