The Unique Sidney Bechet (+8 Bonus Tracks) Limited edition

Sidney Bechet

Revered in France during the last decade of his life, Sidney Bechet

was one of the seminal forces in the roots of New Orleans jazz

and the first musician to give the soprano sax a voice in jazz. This

release presents the complete LP The Fabulous Sidney Bechet

(Blue Note BLP 1207), featuring two brilliant sextet sessions by the

saxophonist on which he is teamed alternatively with trumpeters

Sidney DeParis and Jonah Jones. Eight bonus tracks have been

added, among them Bechet's "One-man Band" sides (on which

he played all of the instruments by means of overdubbing), and his

classic renditions of "Summertime", "Strange Fruit", "Si tu vois ma

mère" and the immortal "Petite fleur".
