Stan Getz Meets Gerry Mulligan ‎– Getz Meets Mulligan In Hi-FI

This release contains the complete album Getz Meets Mulligan in Hi-Fi (Verve MGV-8249), which was their only quintet album together. Included here are two tunes that complete the session, “Scrapple from the Apple” and “I Didn’t Know What Time It Was”, which had been originally issued on a various artists LP.

On the album’s first three tracks, the leaders trade horns, allowing the listener the rare opportunity to hear Stan Getz on baritone sax and Gerry Mulligan on tenor sax!

4 STARS DOWN BEAT (1957) “A Getz-Mulligan meeting on record was, one supposes, inevitable sooner or later. In capturing both saxists for a joint date, in supplying them with a rhythm section of top calibre, it was produced a worldwide jazz album”. – John A. Tynan
