Red Mitchell - The Classic Albums 1955-1963 [CD]

Keith Moore "Red" Mitchell was an American jazz double-bassist, composer, lyricist, and poet, born in New York City. This set collates the very finest music that Red Mitchell released from the late-50s to the mid-60s, and therefore acts as the best compilation of Mitchell's work released to date - a fine starting point for those new to his work, and a superb reminder for the rest of us.
