I have yet to hear a BW album i don't like, Johnny Hodges also comes to mind. They're all imbued with a big, humid and breathy sound that makes everything he plays sound fresh and dreamy, but you must like early jazz standards. A few guys I knew that only collected and listened to hard bop and free jazz would step on a BW record if it were in their way - to each his own!Comment

Plus one and I don't even go back to the mono era. You can get a little snapshot of Ben Webster in Norman Granz's biography too.Originally posted by Rob View PostMyles B. Astor, PhD, Administrator
