Never-issued material from baritone sax genius Gerry Mulligan – recorded live in Rome in the early 90s, and one of the strongest demonstrations of Gerry's power at the time! The format is lean – just piano from Harold Danko, bass from Dean Johnson, and drums from Ron Vincent – and tunes are long, and nearly all original compositions by Mulligan – who pushes all these amazing colors and tones throughout the set – almost painterly in the way he approaches the sound, but always swinging too – at that level he first brought to his music when he wasn't recording with a piano, getting even more bite here with Danko's great work on the keys. The whole thing is wonderful – some of Mulligan's best material from the later years – and titles include "Curtains", "Lonesome Boulevard", "Out Back Of The Barn", "Walkin Shoes", "Sun On Stairs", and "A Gift For Dizzy". © 1996-2025, Dusty Groove, Inc.

Together with Gil Evans and Miles Davis, the 20 year old Gerry Mulligan conceived the revolutionary nonet music for Birth of the Cool. In Stuttgart, at age 50, he was already looking back on a career spanning almost thirty years and was much in demand. The fact that he wrote fascinating film scores and won Grammys for them in the ‘70s, not to mention his burgeoning interest in jazz-rock fusions, once again highlighted this extraordinary musician’s exceptional openness and creative potential. These recordings were previously released as "Liederhalle Stuttgart November 22, 1977".

The most famous and probably greatest jazz baritonist of all time, Gerry Mulligan was a giant. A flexible soloist who was always ready to jam with anyone from Dixielanders to the most advanced boppers, Mulligan brought a somewhat revolutionary light sound to his potentially awkward and brutal horn and played with the speed and dexterity of an altoist…

Gerald Joseph Mulligan (April 6, 1927 – January 20, 1996), also known as Jeru, was an American jazz saxophonist, clarinetist, composer and arranger. Though primarily known as one of the leading jazz baritone saxophonists—playing the instrument with a light and airy tone in the era of cool jazz—Mulligan was also a significant arranger, working with Claude Thornhill, Miles Davis, Stan Kenton, and others…

Three giants of West Coast Jazz came together in this deeply swinging session recorded for the Pacific Jazz/World Pacific label in 1953. Alto saxophone master Lee Konitz joins with the great Gerry Mulligan on baritone saxophone and legendary trumpeter Chet Baker on a half-live, half-studio program of standards along with one Mulligan original. The group is supported by bassists Carson Smith and Joe Mondragon with Larry Bunker on drums for this spontaneous and inventive jazz treasure.

Starting in the late '50s, Gerry Mulligan recorded a series of encounters with fellow saxophonists that included such immortals as Stan Getz, Paul Desmond, Johnny Hodges and Ben Webster. In 1986 he resumed the practice for this one date on which his baritone is matched with the tenor of the young great Scott Hamilton. The music, which includes warm ballads and fairly hot romps (five of the seven songs are Mulligan originals), consistently swing and are quite enjoyable.
