Soho Nights Vol. 2

Recorded live at Ronnie Scotts in 1964, here is the second set from tenor giant Ben Webster's first appearance at the club, backed by Stan Tracey's 'in-house' trio. The second in a trilogy of Ben Webster/Stan Tracey previously unissued recordings it has been digitally re-mastered from the original tape reel.

"The music here has lain unheard on the original tape reel for 48 years and has never been released in any format, making it a remarkable rediscovery". Simon Spillett's informative liner notes once again put the people and the era into context.

The superb recording quality of Volume 2 of Soho Nights perfectly captures the atmosphere of the club in its old home in Gerrard Street with announcements by Ronnie Scott as MC, making it an historic CD not to be missed.

Personnel: Ben Webster (tenor saxophone), Stan Tracey (piano), Rick Laird (bass), Jackie Dougan (drums)
