Sidney Sebold in Afternoon Special in Pdf

This CD compilation includes two separate sessions by the legendary soprano saxophonist Sidney Bechet and a third date by clarinetist Claude Luter. Bechet's hearty vibrato dominates the four octet tracks, though his French band provides more than adequate support for him. Trumpeter Gerard Bayol and trombonist Benny Vasseur get in their licks in the laid back "On the Sunny Side of the Street." The quartet session is more interesting, just for the opportunity to hear drummer Kenny Clarke and bassist Pierre Michelot outside their normal bop recordings; the pianist is Eddie Bernard (who was also present on the octet recordings)…

Avid Jazz continues with its Four Classic album series with a re-mastered 2CD release by Sidney Bechet, complete with original artwork and liner notes. “Favourites”; “Sidney Bechet with Claude Luter Et Son Orchestre - Vol 1”; “Sidney Bechet with Claude Lute Et Son Orchestre - Vol 2“ and “Souvenirs”.
