Description
Item Description: Ben Webster's "Ben Webster And Associates" with Coleman Hawkins, Budd Johnson, Roy Eldridge, Jimmy Jones, Leslie Spann, Jo Jones and Ray Brown on Verve MGV-8318/ORG 116. Ben Webster and Associates is a 1959 session that took full advantage of the long-playing LP format. Highlighted by the 20-minute version of Ellington's 'In a Mellow Tone' in which tenor titans Ben Webster, Coleman Hawkins, and Budd Johnson plus trumpeter Roy Eldridge stretch out, not so much in a cutting contest as a laid-back jam session amongst friends. This summit meeting turned out to be a tribute to another tenor master of the same generation, Lester Young, who had died less than four weeks before this session.
Pressing: Audiophile reissue by ORG (Original Recordings Group) on 45 RPM double LP. Limited edition, no. 00309. Remastered by Bernie Grundman and pressed at RTI. Housed in foldout cover.
Condition: Near mint LP and cover like new.
Shipping: $6.00 media mail. If you win more than one item, I will combine and reduce shipping accordingly. All LPs are carefully packed in mailers made for record shipment.
