Ben Webster Meets Oscar Peterson brings together two of the greatest stylists American music has produced. Here, in a program of timeless songs, pianist Oscar Peterson is the perfect foil -- his effortless swing an excellent set-up for the unhurried scoops, slurs, and bent notes of tenor saxophone balladeer Ben Webster -- just the way he liked it.
Includes original liner notes by Stephen Frostberg and reissue liner notes by Kevin Whitehead.
Ben Webster - Tenor Saxophone
