Poutin’
Ben Webster
March 27, 1909 – September 20, 1973
Ben Webster would spend the rest of the decade after this performance in Europe – first in London, then Amsterdam, before finally moving to Copenhagen.
In the early ’50s, pianist Stan Tracey toured the United Kingdom with Cab Calloway. Sonny Rollins considered him a real talent, although Tracey’s fame is surely greatest in Britain.
London, Mid-’60s
