Customer Reviews:

4 out of 5 stars A pretty good sample.......2007-05-30

A mixed bag of small and large groups playing mainstream 50s jazz with this excellent sax player, so if you have a preference for one or the other you may not like it all. I liked the small group stuff but some of the big band stuff was a bit corny to my ears. Still, the remasters are good.

Stockholm Street Vol.4 1959-60 on the other hand features quartets to octets and is more homogeneous in style, which is smooth and groovy - a better album by far.

5 out of 5 stars The little known crown prince of baritone sax.......2000-08-09

Lars Gullin, the Swedish saxman, was reckoned as one of the greatest baritone saxophone soloists of his time. His personal playing, composing and arranging style was somewhat reminiscent of Gerry Mulligan's, but he was also heavily influenced by Lee Konitz' alto playing. He played with all the greats when they visited Scandinavia, and was ranked high in Down Beat's polls during the fifties.

This man and his music, 1950's bebop oriented, well crafted and arranged jazz with a tinge of Swedish folklore, deserves a lot of attention! This album is a great first look into his work, heart-and-ear-pleasing music by a true romantic!

CHECK THIS ONE OUT!!
