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”.
