O.K., so it's mono. And, for much of the
recording, Mulligan's quartet seems simply to be
backing Konitz. But hang on, this is a marvelous
little gem. Mulligan on the bariton, Konitz on
alto, and - yes - Chet Baker on trumpet. How can
you pass this up?
But this is more than an artifact. This is jazz at
its spontaneous and inventive best. Konitz, freed
from Stan Kenton, has all sorts of new ideas
about these old standards. And, for many of the
cuts, as Lee explores the possibilities, you can
hear Mulligan purring far in the background (mono,
remember), and, every once in a while, moving to
the foreground to make a few statements of his
own. These two jazz minds talk to each other,
tease each other,support and - in a gentle way -
challenge each other.
And, of course, in a few cuts, Baker's sweet
trumpet announces itself and joins the two sax
players in their explorations. The now-unheralded
but extremely deft Carson Smith takes on most of
the bass responsibilities, and provides - along
with Larry Bunker on drums - a solid stage for
Baker, Mulligan, and Konitz to swing on.
Mulligan, Konitz, and Baker, of course, went their
separate ways, Konitz and Mulligan to long and
brilliant careers, Baker to a briefer, tragic, but
still shining career. This, then, was a moment in
time, and is now your chance to catch these
giants sharing a stage, playing for and with one
another, showing admiration and affection for each
other's talents and ideas.
Mono - so what? This is a treasure from the vaults
of Pacific Jazz.
