This reissue is a box which simply houses three Ben Webster Black Lion releases which are also readily available as single CD's. The veteran tenor-saxophonist is showcased in a trio of settings from early in his European years. There Is No Greater Love is a ballad-oriented quartet date from 1965 with pianist Kenny Drew, bassist Niels Pedersen and drummer Alex Riel. The Jeep Is Jumping teams Webster with two other horns in a sextet that sounds very much like a Duke Ellington small group from the 1930's. The last album, Ben Webster Meets Bill Coleman, reunites Webster with the fine swing trumpeter Bill Coleman on record for the first time since 1946; both sound inspired. All self-respecting swing and mainstream fans who do not have these individual CD's are advised to get this very enjoyable box. ~ Scott Yanow, Rovi
