A unique musical force and a giant of New Orleans jazz, Sidney Bechet was the master of the soprano saxophone and one of the greatest jazz soloists of all time. John Coltrane and Duke Ellington both loved his forceful playing and wide vibrato. This valuable collection contains 21 of Bechets finest recordings from his American years, gathered together on a single CD for the very first time, with remastered sound, detailed notes by Scott Yanow and rare historic photos.
