I concur. Long ago I came looking for this piece to no avail. I decided to upload it so people could listen, and for those who didn't know about Mulligan to have yet another chance to stumble upon him.
Take a look at this months issue of Jazzwise magazine. It has a lot of interesting material about Gerry and at least one contributor explicitly agrees with your opinion that he deserves more recognition.
Must have been a ball.. hope you are doing fine and in good health. You deserve it! One of my all time favorite records is “at Storyville”.. you guys were awasome!
I never thought I would have the opportunity to thank the great BILL CROW for the jazz he has made and for the books full of stories and anecdotes that make a jazz fan's life more interesting and fun.
Growing up in San Francisco in the late 50's I used to go downtown to the old Blackhawk Club on Turk and Hyde Sts. to see Mulligan and his "piano-less" quartet. They'd let minors sit in back. Just loved it.
Yes to that! He made the bari sound not so much like a clarinet as like a cello. Or one could say he was the bari's Lester Young to Harry Carney's Coleman Hawkins. And to think we all used to ARGUE about who was better among all these giants whom time clearly has not replaced.
I don't know if all of Bob Brookmeyer's backgrounds were improvised, but he's the only person I know who consistently played counterpoint lines like that. You can always tell when it's him!
Thanks for posting this.It took me back a few years to the 50's when I saw the Quartet at the Royal Festival Hall in London.They played this tune and at the end of the Concert Gerry and Bob Joined forces with the British Jazz Today Unit for Jam Session.Heady Days!!
What a time the 50's were! Every style that ever meant anything in jazz was active and thriving, and nearly all the practitioners were alive and still performing: Gerry and Bobby, Monk, Brubeck, Tristano, Bud Powell, Diz, Bird, Miles, but also Benny Goodman, Basie, Ellington, the Condon All Stars, Teagarden, and Louis Armstrong who, ALL those years in, was still playing immense horn. And in comedy too. On the one hand Jack Benny, Bob Hope, Burns & Allen, and on the other Lenny Bruce, Mort Sahl, Nichols & May. And when you got in late from work or a play or a concert, you could sit down with Jack Paar. And NOW? The musicians are dead, and we shall not see their likes again. And you can sit down with...Jimmy Fallon? We never thought much of Eisenhower, but he's a giant next to W and BHO.
I absolutely agree we will never ever have anything better. I'm 85 and still discovering gems from the fifties. I first heard Gerry when I was about 16 , memories!!!
If you have the full video of the Jazz Casual Gerry Mulligan Quartet, can put the Four for Three music video. If you can even put the whole video I would really appreciate if you would do that.
Hi.it is a valve trombone.it has valves like a trumpet.not the slide bone.juan tizol from duke ellington was the guy that made valve bone famous.brookmeyer great one and also arranger !
A good trombone player can still play fast with the slide but it is a challenge. The other guys you play with only have to move their fingers. You really don't see valve trombones anymore (at least I can't think of anyone since Bob passed away).

Every composition, every arrangement, every solo Gerry Mulligan ever created was always first rate. He really deserves more recognition.

I loved playing with these guys. Wyatt was my sub while I was in the Soviet Union that summer with Benny Goodman's band.
I'm sure you guys had a helluva time together

Loved your perfomance with them at Monterey in '58! You're a living legend, Bill!
Wowwwww Bill Crow!!!! I love your álbuns with Mulligan! In Boston storyville is a timeless classic, one of the all time best records

Gerry Mulligan and his colleagues save me from depression, he regenerates me !

your a lucky guy, wish i was alive when Gerry was
It was the good time!
With valve trombonist Bob Brookmeyer, drummer Gus Johnson and bassist Wyatt Ruther.
Actually Gerry could play the Bari in the upper register sweetly where everyone else just squeeked. He was amazing.
Yes to that! He made the bari sound not so much like a clarinet as like a cello. Or one could say he was the bari's Lester Young to Harry Carney's Coleman Hawkins. And to think we all used to ARGUE about who was better among all these giants whom time clearly has not replaced.
His upper register is a smooth tenor sound !
No words. Okay, "WoW!". Thank you for posting!
WoW seems fitting, alright :v. You're most welcome.
What taste and feel on a bari! He plays it so lightly!
Geru (as Miles caked him) is getting with it and taking care of business with the changes here. Yeah!
❤
Spectacular!Mulligan and Brookmeyer together!!!thank you so much for loading it!!!a treasure!
That's a beautiful trombone-tone to go with the baritone sax
Those two baritone voices sound so sweet together.

and all done on one mike, amazing
Just fantastic!
Una maravilla Gerry y Bob, me recuerda el inolvidable cuarteto con Red Mitchel y Frank Isola en París.
Y quien opina es buen entendedor!!!
MAGNIFIQUE !!!!
Vintage Mulligan
Que beleza!
Amazing
MUSIC!!!
De algún modo, Mulligan revolucionó el Jazz con su estilo y el entonces vapuleado Baritone sax!
Love that phrase 2:39
Nice!

Right on "I Like Ike" _ _ _ & Mamie too .

@@maryandronhockey8459 I first heard Gerry while playing hooky from school and listening to Symphony Sid instead. A great trade-off.
If you have the full video of the Jazz Casual Gerry Mulligan Quartet, can put the Four for Three music video. If you can even put the whole video I would really appreciate if you would do that.
Джерри Маллиган - для меня это Эверест в Джазе.
Translation: Jerry Mulligan - for me, he is the Everest in Jazz.
Anyone else think Mulligan made the baritone sax sound like a clarinet? (Not a slam, I like it.)
Ja, wie eine etwas heisere Klarinette!
Same here.
Someone once wrote that if we could hear chocolate fudge cake it would sound like Gerry Mulligan
As I recall Gerry started out with the clarinet.
Yes ... great tone... unmatched
Gerry Mulligan and his quartet with Bob Brokemayer, another pianoless quartet. Gerry should be seen on piano as well.
Great tune
hey sorry, i've been busy this last month

Valve trombone.
