PO Box 1236 Saratoga Springs NY 12866 USA wes montgomery big band series movin’ wes (part II) (1964) Background: Having solidified his stature as the most exciting and influential guitarist on the jazz scene, Wes Montgomery moved in a more commercial direction in 1963 with his recording date titled Fusion! (with string arrangements by Jimmy Jones). Wes would then be signed by Verve Records and continued to move in this direction with a big band record in 1964 titled Movin’ Wes (arrangements by Johnny Pate); Bumpin’ (string arrangements by Don Sebesky) and Goin’ Out of My Head (big band arrangements by Oliver Nelson) in 1965; and in 1966, his final two large-scale recording dates for Verve: Tequila (string arrangements by Claus Ogerman) and California Dreamin’ (string arrangements by Don Sebeksy). While many have criticized the direction that Wes moved in during what would be become his final years, there is no disputing that his playing remained consistently impressive.

  • Gerry Mulligan Discography
    GERRY MULLIGAN DISCOGRAPHY GERRY MULLIGAN RECORDINGS, CONCERTS AND WHEREABOUTS by Gérard Dugelay, France and Kenneth Hallqvist, Sweden January 2011 Gerry Mulligan DISCOGRAPHY - Recordings, Concerts and Whereabouts by Gérard Dugelay & Kenneth Hallqvist - page No. 1 PREFACE BY GERARD DUGELAY I fell in love when I was younger I was a young jazz fan, when I discovered the music of Gerry Mulligan through a birthday gift from my father. This album was “Gerry Mulligan & Astor Piazzolla”. But it was through “Song for Strayhorn” (Carnegie Hall concert CTI album) I fell in love with the music of Gerry Mulligan. My impressions were: “How great this man is to be able to compose so nicely!, to improvise so marvellously! and to give us such feelings!” Step by step my interest for the music increased I bought regularly his albums and I became crazy from the Concert Jazz Band LPs. Then I appreciated the pianoless Quartets with Bob Brookmeyer (The Pleyel Concerts, which are easily available in France) and with Chet Baker. Just married with Danielle, I spent some days of our honey moon at Antwerp (Belgium) and I had the chance to see the Gerry Mulligan Orchestra in concert. After the concert my wife said: “During some songs I had lost you, you were with the music of Gerry Mulligan!!!” During these 30 years of travel in the music of Jeru, I bought many bootleg albums. One was very important, because it gave me a new direction in my passion: the discographical part. This was the album “Gerry Mulligan – Vol. 2, Live in Stockholm, May 1957”.
