Benny Carter was a giant in the world of jazz from the late twenties until his death in 2003. As a sublime saxophone player he contributed to scores of recordings but was also a highly accomplished arranger, composer and bandleader. This 1977 performance has him accompanied by Ray Bryant, Jimmie Smith and Niels Pedersen on classic tracks such as Body And Soul and Heres That Rainy Day.
Three little words
In a mellow tone
