Gerry Mulligan Quartet

Description:

Previously unreleased live recordings! Sixth in the "In Concert" series! Includes a 1959 live performance in Copenhagen with the piano-less quartet of Gerry Mulligan, Art Farmer, Dave Bailey, and Bill Crowe! World premiere, previously unreleased recording of Mulligan's May 21, 1959 live performance at the Falconer Centret with Art Farmer in a pianoless quartet prior to the 1960 Copenhagen live performance (SCCD 36502). On this night, the Danish audience was captivated by the "cool" sound of so-called West Coast jazz. The quartet was only active for a very short period of time in the 50s, so this album is a valuable piece of history. Andrew Hoven's liner notes, based on an interview with the quartet's bassist, Bill Crowe (now 95), are also very readable.
