Product description

Dive into the sultry, cool jazz sounds of Ben Webster's "Live at Pio's," a captivating live album recorded in 1964 but not released until 1974. This enchanting collection features Webster, the legendary tenor saxophonist, in a live setting at Pio's Lodge in Providence, Rhode Island, backed by a superb rhythm section comprising Junior Mance on piano, Bob Cranshaw on bass, and Mickey Roker on drums.

The album opens with the lively "Cookin' for T" and continues with a mix of standards and jazz favorites, including "Gone with the Wind," "Sunday," "Pennies from Heaven," "How Long Has This Been Going On," and "Sometimes I'm Happy." Each track showcases Webster's signature warm, velvety tone and masterful improvisational skills, making this a quintessential cool jazz experience.

"Live at Pio's" is a testament to Webster's enduring legacy in the jazz world. The album's short, engaging tracks highlight his ability to convey deep sentiment and swing with equal measure. The rhythm section provides a solid foundation, allowing Webster's saxophone to soar and captivate. Whether you're a longtime fan of Ben Webster or new to his music, this album offers a rich, immersive journey into the heart of cool jazz.

This LP was released in 2021.

  • Poor Audio Quality

    3 out of 5 stars
    ekagegoyuMarch 1, 2025United States🇺🇸

    Audio quality isn't great. Lacks dynamics. Piano recording is poor.

  • Webster's Pio's Performances

    4 out of 5 stars
    Lacid53August 27, 2024United States🇺🇸

    Quite a captivating set. According to AllMusic, this compilation features two performances at Pio’s, one from February 1964 and the other from July 1973. I'm not entirely convinced. There's no noticeable variation between the tracks in terms of microphone placement (which isn't ideal) or the musicians involved. The sound quality is decent, but it's far from audiophile standards (I'm unsure why Pure Pleasure chose to reissue this, apart from the historical and musical significance of the performances). That said, the musicianship is superb. Both Ben Webster and Junior Mance are on top of their game here. This album isn't hard to find and is definitely worth picking up.

  • Poor Quality, Return It

    Awful quality and it sounds real bad. Wouldn't suggest it. Send it back to the seller ...

About Ben Webster

Ben Webster, born Benjamin Francis Webster, was a titan of the tenor saxophone in the world of jazz, renowned for his distinctive, warm, and raspy sound. Hailing from Kansas City, Missouri, Webster's career spanned several decades, from the 1930s through the 1970s, making him one of the most influential figures in early jazz history. Often hailed as one of the "big three" of swing tenors, alongside Coleman Hawkins and Lester Young, Webster's style was uniquely his own, blending a tough, raspy tone with a breathy, instantly recognizable warmth. His collaborations with legends like Duke Ellington, Billie Holiday, and Johnny Hodges are testament to his musical prowess and enduring legacy. Webster's performances in the United States and Europe left an indelible mark on the jazz scene, making him a beloved figure among fans and fellow musicians alike. His nickname, "The Brute" or "Frog," added a touch of mystique to his persona, but it was his music that truly set him apart. Webster's contributions to jazz continue to inspire and captivate, cementing his status as a true master of the genre.
