Mit »Soulville« legte Ben Webster 1957 ein für ihn exemplarisches Album vor, das ihn als einfühlsamen, aber zugleich auch unglaublich ausdrucksstarken Tenorsaxofonisten zeigte. Zum Zeitpunkt der Aufnahme galt Webster international bereits als einer der ‹elder statesmen« des Jazz. Aber das jugendliche Feuer, das zwei Jahrzehnte zuvor sein Spiel im Duke Ellington Orchestra geprägt hatte, war längst noch nicht erloschen. Neben zwei Eigenkompositionen interpretiert der Tenorist eine Reihe von populären Jazzballaden.
Obwohl sein Repertoire für immer mit dem des Duke verbunden sein würde, präsentiert Webster auf diesem Album Versionen von vier Standards und, was am ungewöhnlichsten ist, zwei Eigenkompositionen. Besetzung: Ben Webster, Tenorsaxophon; Oscar Peterson, Klavier; Herb Ellis, Gitarre; Ray Brown, Bass; Stan Levey, Schlagzeug.
Soulville is quintessential Ben Webster: intimate, tender, endlessly expressive. Webster was internationally recognized as one of jazz's elder statesmen when he recorded this album in 1957, but the youthful fire that had marked his playing with the Duke Ellington Orchestra two decades earlier was undiminished.
Leading a stellar combo through a program consisting mostly of vintage pop tunes, the great tenor saxophonist is at his peak. And this reissue includes three rare recordings of Webster on piano, the first instrument he played as a young professional musician.
