Love the Clark Terry-Red Mitchell duo album - on Enja i believe. Even better was seeing them in person at Monterey ('86?). Never would have thought that trumpet-bass would work, at least for a whole album/set, but it was most enjoyable.

flat 5 mentioned Red Mitchell with Warne Marsh. I like Big Two Vol. 1 a lot. Was there a Vol. 2? I seem to recall seeing it listed somewhere, but I'm not certain.

I have a soft spot in my heart (some anti-Red folks might say it's in my head, but that's cool) for the duo album he co-led with Jim Hall on Artists House, and for the John Lewis Album, with Lewis, Putte Wickman, and Mitchell, on Japanese Finesse.

It is really confusing. An lp was issued on Storyville, later reissued as vol. 2. Vol. 1 was previously unissued material. On top of that, Fresh Sound issued an NPR broadcast of the duo - so there are 3 discs on the market.

Solid Records of Japan issued two CDs (with strikingly creative artwork) of never-before-released Mitchell studio sessions recorded in the Netherlands for Timeless in 1989. With Dado Moroni, Sweets Edison, Ben Riley and Adrienne West on a couple of tracks:

Nice stuff, Mitchell's heavy pick-uped bass and wrooom-wrooom style notwithstanding.
