SOUNDS TO WALK THE CITY AT NIGHT TO -- SUROUNDED BY NIGHT LIGHTS
PIC INFO: Spotlight on what's probably my all-time favorite jazz record, "Night Lights" is an album by American jazz saxophonist Gerry Mulligan, and released on the Philips record label in 1963.
MINI-OVERVIEW: "With its striking Oliver Hardimon designed cover, Night Lights! is the very definition of refined cool jazz. Shimmering with a late-night beauty that perfectly evokes a sophisticated New York City in the early 1960s, Gerry and his Sextet fuse slow burning jazz noir alongside emerging, contemporary Brazilian rhythms with the interplay between Mulligan and guitarist Jim Hall a particular standout throughout.
Title track "Night Lights" is a wonderfully smooth, low light tune, while the Latin tinged "Morning of the Carnival" really finds the band in their finest and most swinging form. A cover of jazz standard "In the Wee Small Hours of the Morning" followed by Chopin's "Prelude in E Minor" continues the delightful groove before we finish out with Mulligan originals "Festival Minor" and "Tell Me When."
For this version of the release, we have included the 1965 version of "Night Lights," which gives an interesting comparison, performed by his later day Quintet featuring the Wrecking Crew's legendary Hal Blaine on drums amongst others."
-- "BARNEY_TABASCO" (via Steve Hoffman music forums) on Gerry Mulligan's "Night Lights"

Audio
Listen to ten minutes of Gerry Mulligan’s original film soundtrack ‘La Menace’ (DRG Records- MRS 506, USA, 1982).
Yes, what at absolutely atrocious sleeve. Quite possibly the ugliest travesty of an album cover that I own. Doubly distressing in fact as the original French and Italian issues form 1977 (when the film was released) have a really cool cover with a still from the movie. Never mind eh- the music is great and what does one expect for three quid in Camberwell anyway? A coffee? Yes, just about.
Aside from his illustrious career as one of the pre-eminent baritone saxophonists, band leaders and side men of his generation, Gerry Mulligan also had an on-off relationship with the film business. He performed on a soundtrack relatively early in his career in 1958’s ‘I Want To Live’ and although the score is credited to Johnny Mandel, Mulligan’s combo also contributed six tracks of their own. Gerry also bagged a small acting role to boot, something he did again, twice, two years later; once in the Tony Curtis vehicle about struggling jazz musicians, ‘Rat Race’ and again in the beatnik classic ‘The Subterraneans’ which incidentally has a cracking jazz score composed by the recently departed André Previn. After a little mid 60s film composing he returned in 1977, writing the soundtracks for two French movies in the same year- the subject of this post and a black and white film entitled ‘Les Petites Galerès’.
Sadly, the three decade love affair between jazz music and the film industry (Quincy Jones, Art Blakey, Miles Davis, Sonny Rollins, Stan Getz, Mal Waldron, Herbie Hancock, George Gruntz, Chico Hamilton- I could go on…) is a distant memory. Now we have to put up with Hans bloody Zimmer, John Williams or, at best, some generic, moody electronic stuff that someone just ‘phones in’.
By the way, you can watch the entire film free, right here on Youtube.

#Repost @articulatedvinyl ・・・ Compadres is the first album by Brubeck's configuration called "The Dave Brubeck Trio & Gerry Mulligan", which followed the departure of Paul Desmond. It was recorded live in Mexico and upheld the notion that Brubeck could keep the train going post-Desmond. Speaking of configurations, Aquaman doesn't get to see many movies, but heard a Justice League one was released last year. He asks Superman which handsome, blonde Hollywood lead was cast as him. "Ryan Gosling? Matt Damon? Charlie Hunnam?" Supes is trying to build the courage to tell him the truth. #davebrubeck #compadres #davebrubecktrio #gerrymulligan #jazz #dccomics #justiceleague #superman #aquaman #blonde
