Stardust - inspired by and dedicated to my greatest idol, Ben Webster

Unfortunately backed only by BiaB...

Thank you for everything, Ben Webster.

Sometimes I wonder why I spend
The lonely night dreaming of a song
The melody haunts my reverie
And I am once again with you
When our love was new
And each kiss an inspiration
But that was long ago
Now my consolation
Is in the stardust of a song

Beside a garden wall
When stars are bright
You are in my arms
The nightingale tells his fairy tale
A paradise where roses bloom
Though I dream in vain
In my heart it will remain
My stardust melody
The memory of love's refrain

@matoflash Im a sax player myself and a very big fan of Ben Webster for more than 30 yaers. I hear immediately one thing in your playing. ' Your big love, respect and admiration for Ben Webster '. That is what's made you are so good.Thanks, it's great to hear that Ben is somehow still a live.

Amazing Webster sound and style you have!

[SaxismyaxeSOTW]

Beautiful rendition Matoflash. You have learned wisely both what to play, as well as what not to play, just like your idol.

Ben Webster would feel flattered. Nice gig

I love Ben Webster, and I am proud of what I was able to express in this particular perfomance. It happens to me very, very rarely, that I enjoy listening to myself. And now, I just did.
