An overlooked  Dave Brubeck session from the 60s featuring his piano alongside Gerry Mulligan's baritone sax. The quartet—completed by Jack Six on bass and Alan Dawson on drums—delivers warm, expressive jazz that shifts away from Brubeck's more conceptual work. Mulligan's fluid playing brings a gentle intensity to standout tracks like "Broke Blues," "Journey," "Cross Ties," "Blues Roots," and "Moving Out." A striking meeting of two jazz voices in intimate, open company.
