one of my favorite solos by Gerry .... wonderful work by Bill Crow .... bought this LP in 60 and sill listen to it ..... hard to believe it is almost 60 years old
The best cover of My Funny Valentine that I have ever heard. The chords and the arrangement of the sax and the trumpet "talking" to each other and blending so beautifully makes it a masterpiece. Also, it's one of the first jazz songs I adored & tried to learn note by note on my flute something like 25 years ago.
I've listened to this recording dozens of times and always thought it was Chet Baker on trumpet because of the interplay between the players. Crazy that Art Farmer and Gerry had that type of chemistry too.
