Description
Pacific Jazz, 1953: Lee Konitz Plays With The Gerry Mulligan Quartet finds him stepping into the Mulligan Quartet with Chet Baker and Chico Hamilton, producer Richard Bock catching cool-jazz counterpoint at speaking distance. Konitz’s dry alto tucks into Mulligan’s airy baritone, trading lines that feel composed yet alive. On I’ll Remember April the alto darts around the baritone’s anchor, and All the Things You Are turns into a sly conversation rather than a solo parade. It’s the kind of spin we put on in Melbourne when the room wants swing with a gentle pulse.
This LP pressing opens up the space between horns and kit, and cymbals decay cleanly so the brushwork breathes. Baker’s presence keeps the counterpoint playful rather than fussy. If you'd rather order online, you can buy Lee Konitz records online with us.
File it with early-50s West Coast cool on your shelf next to Chet Baker, where the no-piano transparency and contrapuntal spark make perfect sense. You can hear why Konitz’s Tristano-line clarity meshes with Mulligan’s buoyant writing without anyone forcing it. Timeless, unfussy, and surprisingly warm.
