Two overlooked facts about alto saxist Paul Desmond: First, he, and not Dave Brubeck, actually composed the classic tune "Take Five” and second, his best work was actually on his own. Due to a handshake agreement, Desmond never hired a pianist for his own recordings in order not to compare his band with his stint with Dave Brubeck; instead he usually used a cool toned guitarist. In the sixties it was usually Jim Hall, and together they made a series of timeless dry martinis of RCA albums such as Take Ten and Easy Living. Mosaic released the Desmond/Hall sessions years ago, and are, how do you say in English, gone with the wind. By the 1970s, he switched to CTI with some sublime albums, and employing Toronto guitarist Ed Bickert for his satisfying 1975 Pure Desmond session.This current limited edition 7cd set (destined to quickly sell out) shows Desmond’s working team in Bickert’s home turf at Bourbon Street for a set of March ’75 gigs. Drummer  Jerry Fuller and bassist Don Thompson fill out the team, and Boss Brasser Rob McConnell sitting in for Bickert for a couple of night, making this a glorious collection of subtle and dry iced swing.
