Although a native New Yorker, he became associated with the West Coast 'cool school' of modern jazz in the 1950s and participated in numerous landmark recordings during his career. He became especially well-known for his collaborations during the early '50s with trumpeter Chet Baker (see 'The Gerry Mulligan\/Chet Baker Collection 1952-53' Acrobat ADDCD 3339), but later in the decade he also made albums with several other jazz luminaries of the era, and this collection comprises the complete contents of five of those. This 33-track 3-CD collections features the titles from from the Verve albums 'Getz Meets Mulligan in Hi-Fi', 'Gerry Mulligan - Paul Desmond Quartet', 'Gerry Mulligan Meets Ben Webster', 'Gerry Mulligan Meets Johnny Hodges', and the Riverside album 'Mulligan Meets Monk'. Quite apart from the headline collaborators , it also includes performances by notable musicians of the day who were in the bands - Joe Benjamin, Lou Levy, Ray Brown, Jimmy Rowles, Mel Lewis, Claude Williamson, Buddy Clark and more. Capturing  the great saxophonist creating albums with his illustrious peers, it naturally offers an enlightening and enjoyable showcase for his unique talents.\u003c\/p\u003e    \u003ch2\u003eTrack Listing\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDisc 1:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e        \u003cli\u003eLet's Do It (Let's Fall In Love)\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eAnything Goes\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eToo Close For Comfort\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eThat Old Feeling\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eThis Can't Be Love\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eBallad\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eScrapple From The Apple\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eI Didn't Know What Time It Was\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eStraight, No Chaser\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eRhythm-A-Ning\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eDecidedly\u003c\/li\u003e          \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDisc 2:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e        \u003cli\u003e'Round Midnight\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eSweet And Lovely\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eI Mean You\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eBlues In Time\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eBody And Soul\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eStand Still\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eLine For Lyons\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eWintersong\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eBattle Hymn Of The Republican\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eFall Out\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eTell Me When\u003c\/li\u003e          \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDisc 3:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e        \u003cli\u003eChelsea Bridge\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eThe Cat Walk\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eSunday\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eWho's Got Rhythm\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eGo Home\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eBunny\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eWhat's The Rush\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eBack Beat\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eWhat It's All About\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003e18 Carrots For Rabbit\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eShady Side\u003c\/li\u003e          \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003ch2\u003eAdditional Details\u003c\/h2\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Acrobat\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGenre:\u003c\/strong\u003e Jazz\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/strong\u003e English  \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRun Time:\u003c\/strong\u003e 210 mins\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0       \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 06\/05\/26\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 824046918422\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"TRAPEZE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47751460847865,"sku":"ACTRCD9184","price":16.24,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0815\/4889\/files\/ACTRCD9184.jpg?v=1775143404","url":"https:\/\/mvdshop.com\/products\/gerry-mulligan-meets-classic-collaborations-1957-59-cd","provider":"MVD Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
