BEN WEBSTER 黑胶唱片和CD

Review: A match made in heaven, set up by Capitol Records and now Decca, between two of the foremost tenor saxophonists of their era. A snapshot of a fabled but singularly monumental day in jazz history - October 16, 1597 - Coleman Hawkins Encounters Ben Webster documents the day the two musicians crossed paths and subsequently jammed it out in the annals of Capitol's studio, based in Hollywood. Made in the fallout of the same session recorded for Hawkins' own The Genius Of Coleman Hawkins, an with a rhythm section led by Oscar Peterson, the album brings a large ensemble cast to this dialectic meeting of minds, and is a deeply affecting anachronism.
