Description

The Soul of Ben Webster was one of only two collaborations between Webster and trumpeter Art Farmer (the other one was an album led by guitarist Mundell Lowe -who also plays here- with selections from Gershwin's Porgy and Bess recorded the same month as the present LP). Although both Webster and Harold Ashby were long-time members of the Duke Ellington band, this is their only existing recording together.Two complete sessions featuring Webster with pianist Teddy Wilson, as well as a 1954 reading of Billy Strayhorn's wonderful ballad 'Chelsea Bridge'(also included on The Soul of Ben Webster) have been added as a bonus. **** AllMusic 'Recorded in 1958 and released the following year on , The Soul of Ben Webster is a superb example of swinging mainstream jazz and bop.Webster is in fine form throughout, as are his fellow musicians including trumpeter Art Farmer, bassist Milt Hinton, pianist Jimmy Jones, and others.' (Matt Collar)
