Ben Webster At Montmartre 1965-1966

This CD contains tracks recorded live during two gigs at the Montmatre jazz club in Copenhagen in 1965 and 1966. Except for one original compositon by Webster the repertoire on the CD consists of standards, almost half of which are ballads. A fine improviser, Ben Webster nevertheless always sticks to the melody, throwing in his trademark tonal distortions and variations which include characteristic growls, shouts, bent notes and his famous, airy whisper.
