STORMY WEATHER is a live date that Ben Webster, the veteran tenor saxophonist, performed just one month after he moved to Europe, disenchanted with his popularity in the United States. This set of music features pianist Kenny Drew (the only other American in the group) with European drummer and bass player Alex Riel and Nils Henning Orsted Pederson, respectively.

The ten tracks on this CD stay pretty well within the genre of "mainstream jazz." However, Drew's bop solos and Riel's slightly more modern drumming add variety to Webster's straight-up swing approach a la Coleman Hawkins. The repertoire is standard, with songs like "Our Love Is Here to Stay," "Mack the Knife," and "Teach Me Tonight."

Webster's forte has always been his ballad playing. The subtle nuances he brings to the melodies of "My Romance" and the title track best show the depth of Webster's musical acumen. In short, STORMY WEATHER reveals that Webster was still at his peak in the mid '60s.
