The Grand Master Of The Soprano Saxophon 180gr LP

Sidney Bechet (ss); Ernie Caceras (bs); Bob Mielke (tb); Bob Wilber (cl); Lloyd Phillips, Dave Bowman (p); Leonard Ware (el-g); Henry Turner, George ?Pops? Foster (b); Zutty Singleton, Arthur Herbert (dr), a.o.

Sidney Bechet's historic recordings for Blue Note
and RCA Victor tend to overshadow some of his
other work because they have been reissued more
frequently, though there are lesser-known dates
worth acquiring as well. This Columbia LP compiles
three separate recording sessions made between
1938 and 1947. Bechet sticks almost exclusively to
soprano sax throughout each of them and has ample
space for his solos, full of his trademark heavy
vibrato. The earliest set matches him with drummer
Zutty Singleton, bassist Henry Turner, and
guitarist Leonard Ware (all members of his working
band at the time), along with pianist Dave Bowman
and baritone saxophonist Ernie Caceres. The
Bechet-Singleton collaboration 'Jungle Drums' has
delightful solos by the two reeds, along with
Singleton's exotic tom-toms. Six tracks come from
a 1947 quartet with pianist Lloyd Phillips,
bassist Pops Foster, and either Freddie Moore or
Arthur Herbert on drums. Bechet's swinging tribute
to a legendary jazzman, 'Buddy Bolden Stomp', a
romp through 'Just One Of Those Things', and a
heartfelt arrangement of 'Laura' are the
highlights of this session. Another 1947 session
gives a preview of the future of classic jazz,
featuring a sextet led by Bechet's star pupil, a
young Bob Wilber, along with Dick Wellstood, who
would rise to fame as a master stride interpreter.
Bechet plays soprano sax and Wilber sticks to
clarinet on two numbers, though they switch roles
on 'Kansas City Man Blues'. While Wilber doesn't
have Bechet's strong vibrato on soprano sax, they
are harder to tell apart on clarinet.
