I was really never big on Art's playing until I purchased the Mosaic collection which features him with Benny Golson and the Jazztet. New found respect after hearing that. I've since picked up the album, "The Art Farmer Quintet" which is excellent.
Tonight I just purchased:
The Art Farmer Septet Plays The Arrangements of Gigi Gryce And Quincy Jones which sounds like a winner judging from the samples. I also own "Modern Art" and a later recording from the late 1980's "Blame It On My Youth". Anyone else here a fan and care to add a few thoughts? Favorite albums or sideman dates?
