My Man: Live at Montmartre 1973 is a live album by American saxophonist Ben Webster recorded at the Jazzhus Montmartre in 1973 and released on the SteepleChase label.[1]
Reception[edit]
The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow awarded the album 3 stars and stated "Just months before his death, the great tenor Ben Webster shows that even with an occasional shortness of breath, he never really declined musically. ...Webster's warm ballad renditions and hard-driving romps are as always quite enjoyable to hear.".[2]
