Easy Living is an album by American saxophonist Ike Quebec recorded in 1962, but not released on the Blue Note label until 1987. The album collects all the material recorded in January 1962, five tracks from which were released in 1981 as Congo Lament.
The Allmusic review by Steve Huey awarded the album 4½ stars and stated "The mood isn't as unified as some of his carefully calibrated romantic dates, but Easy Living offers the two strongest sides of Quebec's musical personality in one place, encapsulating a great deal of what he did best". THe Easy Living LP did not contain all the sextet tracks from the Congo Lament session.
