Complete Recordings - Master Takes [2CD]

opis:
Editor's info:
This release presents the complete master takes by Gerry Mulligan's original 1952-53 piano-less quartet with Chet Baker. These recordings would prove enormously influential and set the groundwork for many other groups. However, Mulligan and Baker's paths would separate afterward and they would not record more than a couple of albums together.
All of their recordings together from that period are on this 2-CD set, with the sole exception of five alternate takes that didn't fit due to time limitations
Chet Baker, trumpet & Gerry Mulligan, baritone sax, on all tracks plus: Bob Whitlock, Carson Smith, Joe Mondragon (b), and Chico Hamilton, or Larry Bunker (d). Recorded in San Francisco, Hollywood and Los Angeles, 1952-53.
2CD set - Total Time: 156:43 - 40 tracks - Includes 8-page booklet.
