United StatesYes, good stuff here ...
Yes, good stuff here as the band members extemporize on the various tracks. Just great live jazz. When Gerry Mulligan launched "C Jam Blues" with those low notes on his baritone saxophone, fun chills ran up my arms. Then McPartland joins him on piano and away goes the group. For me a special treat was hearing Eric Dolphy playing flute on Track 6 "I'm In Love With A Wonderful Guy," with Chico Hamilton on drums (neither are credited in the HDTT liner notes, so a very nice surprise). Another excellent transfer from HDTT
United StatesThis is sinful goodness, and I'm just loving it.
Really nice performances by both the Gerry Mulligan Quartet and the Marian McPartland Trio. When Mulligan launches "C Jam Blues" with those low notes on his baritone saxophone, fun chills ran up my arms. Then McPartland joins him on piano and away goes the group. For me a special treat was hearing Eric Dolphy playing flute on Track 6 "I'm In Love With A Wonderful Guy," with Chico Hamilton on drums (neither are credited in the HDTT liner notes, so a very nice surprise). The sound quality is excellent. A very clean clear transfer by HDTT of a well engineered recording of this live performance.

I downloaded the DXD version, the sound quality is absolutely amazing. And so is the performance of the musicans. A 5 star in all directions!
