Compositions and Arrangements by Gil Evans, George Russell, Manny Albam, Jimmy Giuffre, All Cohn
In 1954, arranger, composer and multi-reed instrumentalist Hal McKusick decided to form a quartet with guitarist par excellence Barry Galbraith, bassist Milt Hinton and drummer Osie Johnson. This outstanding release includes all four of the albums released by the quartet. The session also boasts numerous arrangements and compositions by George Russell, Manny Albam, Al Cohn, Johnny Mandel, Jimmy Giuffre and Gil Evans.
One of the best-kept secrets in jazz, the extraordinary cool toned alto saxophonist has fallen into virtual anonymity despite the extremely high quality of his recordings and his incomparable talents as a soloist. With the most comprehensive anthology of his music to date, it is our intention to shine new light on the career of the inimitable Hal McKusick.
"Here is a new sound in modern jazz. It was inspired by Gerry Mulligan's piano-less quartet which utilizes the bass as the basic sound of the group leaving the other instruments free to weave their lines in an unrestricted way."

Hal McKusick
Active Decades: '50s, '60s, '70s, '80s and '90s
Born: Jun 01, 1924 in Medford, MA
Genre: Jazz
Styles: Cool
A fine cool-toned altoist and an occasional clarinetist, Hal McKusick worked with the big bands of Les Brown, Woody Herman (1943), Boyd Raeburn (1944-1945), Alvino Rey (1946), Buddy Rich, and Claude Thornhill (1948-1949). In the 1950s, in addition to his work with Terry Gibbs and Elliot Lawrence, he was a busy and versatile studio musician. During 1955-1958, McKusick recorded nine albums of material as a leader for Jubilee, Bethlehem, Victor, Coral, New Jazz, Prestige, and Decca. Those small-group recordings, although basically cool bop, sometimes used very advanced arrangements, including charts by George Handy, Manny Albam, Gil Evans, Al Cohn, Jimmy Giuffre, and particularly George Russell.
