I must admit I don´t really have the stuff that had made him famous, I mean those things from Westcoast Jazz, but to hear Mulligan with others was always fantastic, this one with Monk, the dates when he sat in with Mingus (it seems they were quite close in Mingus´ later years), and one special event with Dizzy (Dream Band in the early 80´s I think") where he plays the quintet numbers in an all star setting (Diz, Mulligan, John Lewis, Max Roach or so). On the Monk date I especially love "Midnight", "I Mean You" and that fantastic "Sweet and Lovely " . And LISTEN to Shadow Wilson !!! He was a master, underrated, but he swings like a whole Basie Orchestra !!!! On 26.10.2022 at 8:46 AM, BillF said: I love it. I bought it among my first batch of LPs when I got some money from my father for good high school when I was a teenager. I was mostly lookin for the few musicians I knew (Miles, Trane, Mingus) and since it had also Philly J.J on drums, I bought it. I had heard some Dameron with Miles before. In my case it was a red album cover with a large black white photo of Dameron at the piano, and it was titled "Tadd Dameron with John Coltrane". "On a Misty Night" is a very nice tune, I heard Pharoah Sanders doing it live. Quote

Such sweet sound. This set is a real blessing--where else can you get so much great Dave Barbour guitar? Quote
