Paul Desmond (born Paul Emil Breitenfeld; November 25, 1924 – May 30, 1977) was an American jazz alto saxophonist and composer, born in San Francisco, best known for the work he did in the Dave Brubeck Quartet and for penning that group's greatest hit, "Take Five". He was one of the most popular musicians to come out of the West Coast's "cool jazz" scene, and the possessor of a legendary and idiosyncratic wit. In addition to his work with Brubeck, he led several of his own groups and did significant collaborations with artists such as Gerry Mulligan, Jim Hall and Chet Baker. After years of chain smoking and general poor health, Desmond succumbed to lung cancer in 1977 following one last tour with Brubeck. He worked with Brubeck at the Geary Cellar in San Francisco. Desmond soon hired Brubeck, but cut his pay in half and then replaced him altogether after taking him along to Graeagle at The Feather River Inn for gigs; this was done so Desmond could gamble in nearby Reno. In 1950 Desmond left for New York City playing alto and clarinet for Jack Fina, but returned to California after hearing Brubeck's trio on the radio. The story of their encounter is somewhat humorous. Brubeck — married with three children and holding a grudge from his earlier experience with Desmond — instructed his wife Iola not to let him set foot in his house. But Desmond came to his home in San Francisco one day while Dave was out back hanging diapers on a laundry line, and Iola let him in and took him to Brubeck. Apparently all the begging in the world would not convince Brubeck to hire him, at least not until Desmond offered to babysit Brubeck's children. Desmond Blue with Strings - Principally recorded at Webster Hall, New York between June 19, 1961 & March 15, 1962. Includes liner notes by Doug Ramsey and George Avakian. Recording sessions that pair jazz musicians with string orchestras can be dicey affairs, artistically speaking. More often than not, they represent an attempt to dilute the edginess of jazz and make it palatable for listeners with softer ears. DESMOND BLUE, however, succeeds marvelously. Given alto saxophonist Paul Desmond's natural penchant for cool, silky tones and highly nuanced phrasing, the addition of lush strings (arranged here by Bob Prince) is perfectly complementary, and the results are rich, complex, and alluring, never syrupy or sentimental. The presence of guitar legend Jim Hall adds another dimension to the proceedings. Hall plays with great intuitive restraint and balance, yet is progressive in terms of his harmonic and rhythmic approach. The set focuses mostly on standards, including "I've Got You Under My Skin," "Body and Soul," and "My Funny Valentine," but it is the mood--sophisticated and soothing--that dominates throughout. This is introspective music that will undoubtedly appeal to Desmond fans, and should win over jazz purists and lovers of contemporary orchestral music alike. .................... ************************************************************************************************* We have to admit that not a day goes by that we don't regret having sold off our last complete Classic Records (ClassRec) Gold CD collection about 3 years ago - dumb, dumb move on our part as now they are near impossible to find, especially in sealed condition. What's worse, the music on these discs are some of the greatest performances ever committed to CD. Even if we wanted to get a complete set for ourselves (which we do), it would be difficult, time consuming and expensive. There is no denying that the rarest and most desirable gold CDs on the planet are those issued by Classic Records. Some may argue that the MFSL, Au20, DCC, Sony Mastersound, Atlantic Gold, Zounds, MCA Masterdisc, Pope, Clarity, Sheffield Lab, FIM, GML XRCDs, Proprius, XLO, JMR, Water Lily, Analogue Productions and even Opus 3 gold CDs are just as rare (did we miss any?), but we would have to disagree. Most of the gold CDs from these companies can be found, but when it comes to Classic Records Gold CD titles, you can just forget about some of them completely! Why are they so rare and valuable? That is a tough question to answer. Perhaps it has to do with the fact that Classic Records was one of the first audiophile companies to embrace reissuing reference performances from history, especially in the classical and jazz areas? Perhaps it's because they produced their gold CDs for a very short time and in short order decided to cease this expensive production process? Maybe it's the wonderful sound and careful remastering? Whatever the reasons, this is your chance to acquire some of these super rare Classic Records gold CDs - in untouched, pristine, factory sealed condition - these are investment grade opportunities in music collecting - and that doesn't come around very often! *************************************************************************************************
