Ben Webster - Atmosphere For Lovers & Theives

Featured in Michael Fremer's Heavy Rotation in the March 2008 Issue of Stereophile! Pressed at Pallas in Germany!

Ben Webster was an influential American jazz tenor saxophonist who was considered one of the three most important "swing tenors" along with Coleman Hawkins and Lester Young.

His versatility showed as he had a tough, raspy, and brutal tone on stomps (with his own distinctive growls), while on ballads he would play with warmth and sentiment.
