Recorded at Nola Penthouse Studios in New York in 1963, this session is a little-known masterpiece from Gerry Mulligan’s vast catalog. The baritone saxophonist is a true jazz icon, a leading figure of the West Coast scene from the 1950s until his death in 1996. With its beautiful artwork designed by Oliver Hardimon, Night Lights is the very definition of refined cool jazz. With its elegant beauty that perfectly evokes the sophisticated New York of the early 1960s, Gerry and his Sextet blend jazz and contemporary Brazilian rhythms. The interplay between Mulligan and guitarist Jim Hall is particularly remarkable throughout the album. A must for all fans of the horn player!
