Kevin Bresnahan Posted July 15 Report Posted July 15 15 hours ago, Teasing the Korean said: Gary McFarland - Point of Departure (impulse!, stereo) I saw the lineup for this date and thought, "Wow, this is going to be great". But it wasn't really that great. I was pretty disappointed, to be honest. Quote
clifford_thornton Posted July 15 Report Posted July 15 I think it is a good record but not necessarily a great one. Quote

But he has better jazz albums and better pop albums. Quote

Nice album, good news. I have a turntable technoidiot story to end all others but I'm not sharing it in public NP: The Complete Pacific Jazz And Capitol Recordings Of The Original Gerry Mulligan Quartet And Tentette With Chet Baker This is just a fabulous collection I can't believe I left it so long to properly acquaint myself with this music Edited July 16 by mjazzg Quote
clifford_thornton Posted July 16 Report Posted July 16 Armonicord is killer! Picked it up semi-randomly at La Dame Blanche in Paris around 23 years ago (only knew a couple of musicians on the record) and was blown away. The recent archival CD on NoBusiness (featuring a similar lineup) is also splendid. Quote

Well I bought the Item for the music. However find the coverart also interesting and modern for that time when it was released.
