Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Romulus, meet Remus.......2002-06-05

Two of the best cool jazz men working together with more chemistry than the sum of the periodic table. Great tunes and absulutely masterful improvisational efforts with theme and variations, counterpoint and more cool than an arctic meat locker. The guys trade horns midway through the recording, and their innate musical brilliance and versatility defy description. On my deserted island must have short list.

4 out of 5 stars Close encounters of the best kind.......2000-11-22

While not the best collaboration from Norman Granz' 1950's pairings of giants from his Verve label stable (see Gerry Mulligan meets Ben Webster for that honor), this one shouldn't be overlooked and presents yet another chapter in both Mulligan's and Getz' storied careers. Cut in 1957 this session features the "two brothers" (well, OK maybe not....) dueling over 6 tunes from the original LP plus two bonus tracks. The session swings and the first class rhythm section of Levy, Levey and Brown keeps things fluid, but there's not a whole lot of chemistry between the two saxists. They more or lesst go through the motions buy hey, for these two "the motions" are still superb. Not the best, but well worth the price of admission.
