  1. Ben Webster - At the Renaissance

    (Good follow-up since Hall is one of Lage’s inspirations.)

    This re-master/re-press from last year is a gem: great playing by Webster, Jim Hall (guitar), Jimmy Rowles (piano), Frank Butler (drums), and Red Mitchell (bass); great recording and mastering (hard to believe it's from 1960); and a nice selection of standards.

    Alway fun to listen to Webster fit his growling tone around sweet melodies.

  2. Gerry Mulligan Meets Ben Webster

    1959 set, but might has well have been recorded yesterday, bringing together two great sax players, Mulligan on baritone and Webster on tenor.

    They're joined by Jimmy Rowles (piano), Mel Lewis (drums), and Leroy Vinnegar (bass).

    Swinging, "cool" jazz; good stuff, and another example of these “x meets y" series, playing styles against each other, which often works.
