Sampler of recordings made between 1953 and 1959
m_noland | Washington, DC United States | 02/23/2004
(4 out of 5 stars)

"This disk is a sampler of recordings made between 1953 and 1959 featuring among others Oscar Peterson, Ray Brown, Gerry Mulligan (on two cuts), and Billy Strayhorn (on "Chelsea Bridge"). About half are ballads showcasing Webster's fat breathy vibrato, the remainder are more uptempo. String accompaniment on three of the from the Ellington book ("Chelsea Bridge," "Prelude to a Kiss," and "What Am I here For?")."
