From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Soulville is a 1957 album by swing tenor saxophonist Ben Webster, recording a session from October 15, 1957 which Webster played with the Oscar Peterson Trio. This session is described by All Music as "one of the highlights" of Webster's "golden '50s run".[1] The album was reissued in the early 1990s on CD with three bonus tracks, which include rare recordings of Webster playing piano.[2] When it was remastered in 24-bit for a 2003 edition, additional photographs and new liner notes were also included.[3]
