This wonderful 2-CD set by saxophonist Gil Melle is one of six titles released as part of Blue Note's new Connoisseur 10" series. The set consists of four 10" LPs and the one 12" LP (Patterns In Jazz) Gil recorded for the label. These extremely rare sessions contain a mix of straight bop, a number of standards and many of Melle's unique third stream compositions. Melle's use of a guitar (Tal Farlow, Lou Mecca and Joe Cinderella) in place of a piano was seen as a bold, innovative step

After all, Melle had the formidable Blue Note stable from which to draw. Highlights here include Tal Farlow's tasteful guitar figures on a number or tracks as well as appearances by Oscar Pettiford, Red Mitchell, and Max Roach. Don't be put off by Melle's out-cat reputation.
