LP...$36.99
38.99
A masterpiece from Gerry Mulligan – and one of those key 60s albums that marks such a huge shift in his sound from the 50s!

Red Garland
GroovyPrestige, 1956. (reissue)
Long tracks and plenty of room to move around – a perfect setting for the classic sound of the Red Garland Trio on Prestige!
