Complete At Newport 1958

Gerry Mulligan & Art Farmer

All known recordings by Gerry Mulligan-Art Farmer Quartet and the Chico Hamilton Quintet with Eric Dolphy, at the 1958 Newport Jazz Festival compiled here for the first time ever on a single CD.

Some of this festival music was professionally recorded - portions of these concerts were filmed and edited into Bert Stern’s famous movie feature “Jazz on a Summer’s Day”- but some was preserved on less than professional equipment, so sound quality, as can be imagined, differs from source to source.
