The Last from Lennie's is an album by pianist Jaki Byard's Quartet recorded in 1965 at the same performances that produced Jaki Byard Quartet Live! and (apart from one track which was released in the 1960s) first released on the Prestige label in 2003.[1]
Allmusic awarded the album 4 stars with its review by Ronnie D. Lankford Jr. stating, "the quartet recordings on Last From Lennie's are bursting with creative energy... Like all good vault releases, Last From Lennie's reminds listeners of just how good Byard and his bandmates were".[2] A review on the All About Jazz website stated "The pace never slows over the album's 62 minute length. At the conclusion of "King David," I'm exhausted!"[3]
