Исполнитель: Ben Webster, Georges ArvanitasНазвание альбома: Autumn Leaves Год выпуска: 1972 Формат файлов: mp3|320 kbps Размер архива: 96,03 mb Скачать с: rusfolder.com A great late recording from Ben Webster -- working here in Paris with some wonderful help from the trio of pianist George Arvanitas! George's rhythm duo is wonderful -- the bold bass of Jacky Samson and hip drums of Charles Saudrais -- both players who bring a really fresh feel to the record, and help Webster find a hip setting in these later years of his life -- a sprightly groove that's great for his aging, raspy tone on tenor sax. Arvanitas' piano is nicely restrained, leaving Ben to be the key solo star of the album -- and titles include "Hal Blues", "Johnny Come Lately", "I Want A Little Girl", "Ash's Cap", "Autumn Leaves", and "Prelude To A Kiss". ~ Dusty Groove.
Due to the fresher than usual repertoire (which is highlighted by "Johnny Come Lately," "I Want a Little Girl" and two of his originals), this is one of Ben Webster's better recordings from his later years. Recorded just 15 months before his death, the veteran tenor is in excellent form. The French rhythm section (led by pianist Georges Arvanitas) is also excellent and the swinging music is given creative treatment. ~ by Scott Yanow.
