Stan Getz & Gerry Mulligan - Getz Meets Mulligan In Hi-Fi (Acoustic Sounds Series)

Under the guidance of Norman Granz, Stan Getz and Gerry Mulligan collaborate for the first time as the primary horns on Getz Meets Mulligan in Hi-Fi.

Recorded in 1957, this record offers the unique opportunity to listen to the two jazz stars trade instruments on the first three tracks ("Let's Fall in Love, "Anything Goes," and "Too Close for Comfort") with Getz on baritone sax and Mulligan on tenor.

The music gels with the help of a world-class rhythm section featuring Lou Levy on piano, Ray Brown on bass, and Stan Levey on drums. While a massive musical success, the duo never recorded again in this quintet format, making this record a rarity.
