Gerry Mulligan – Nocturne

Double vinyl LP pressing. In the role of leader, Mulligan prepared scores that always made jazz a conversation between musicians. Playing was first and foremost an exchange of ideas. Mulligan had an unwavering sense of logic and had shown it from a very young age. The first great result came in the historic recordings of Birth of the Cool": the leader was Miles Davis but the éminence grise was above all this boy in his early twenties."
