Requisites

At The Renaissance is one of the live recordings that captured Ben webster’s remarkable empathy during a time when the jazz flame was flickering in this country. The period was the late 1950s and early Sixties, the place – Los Angeles. Jobs were scarce and the jazz scene held a lack of recognition and appreciation for this giant of the tenor saxophone. With the help of a few sympathetic and inspirational colleagues, they delivered a project that has become a necessity to every collection.
