Nice and Easy (subtitled The Soulful Vibes of Johnny Lytle) is the third album led by American jazz vibraphonist Johnny Lytle which was recorded in 1962 for the Jazzland label.
[1] The Allmusic site awarded the album 4½ stars stating "Nice and Easy is a mellow and heavily bop-influenced set fairly far removed from his usual blues-tinged funk...
The results are a welcome change of pace from Lytle's often frenetic and occasionally too-busy style, and the ballad-heavy selection is a nice balance of new tunes and a few familiar standards.
Overall, this could well be Johnny Lytle's best set".
