Tell your friends, tell you mama and your papa. We're back!

Due to recent events involving DotCom, Megaupload and whole SOPA thing, we decided that it was time to spread the jazz again! That's why we're back with something really good for you guys, the complete pacific recordings of Gerry Mulligan Quartet with Chet Backer!

The pianoless quartet of baritonist Gerry Mulligan was: Bob Whitlock on bass, Chico Hamilton on drums and of course Chet Baker on trumpet. Although it's a pianoless quartet, Mulligan himself assumes the instrument in a couple of songs.
