Ben Webster 1940's

Companion to the other program featuring groups with Webster as the only horn, this one has larger groups, but with the spotlight still on the tenor!  Webster's group nominally led by Bill De Arrango recording for Haven with Leonard Hawkins (Idrees Sulieman) on trumpet, Tony Scott on clarinet, Argonne Thornton (Sadik Hakim) on piano, De Arrango on guitar, John Simmons on bass and Sid Catlett on drums; Webster's Wax Quintet with Bill Coleman on trumpet, Jimmy Jones on piano, Al Hall on bass and Denzil Best on drums; Al Hall's Wax Quintet with the same band with Dick Vance on trumpet; Tony Scott's Downbeat Club All Stars with Dizzy Gillespie on trumpet, Trummy Young on trombone, Scott on alto and clarinet, Jimmy Jones on piano, Gene Ramey on bass and Eddie Nicholson in drums.
