Professional ratings Review scores Source Rating AllMusic [ 3]
Jazz Giants '58 album produced by Norman Granz featuring Stan Getz , Gerry Mulligan and Harry "Sweets" Edison , accompanied by Louis Bellson and the Oscar Peterson trio.[ 4] [ 3] [ 5]
The album was similar in format to a previous all-star jazz studio session produced by Granz, The Jazz Giants '56 Count Basie orchestras of the late 1930s and early 1940s. Jazz Giants '58 features a slightly younger cast of seven players, including two West Coast jazz saxophone stars, another alumna of the 1930s Basie band, the Oscar Peterson Trio , and a big band drummer. All of the Jazz Giants '58 musicians were recording mainstream swing music in the 1940s, but almost all had also gone on to play the modern jazz that developed after the World War II .[citation needed
The session was reissued in 1966 as Gerry's Time replacing "Chocolate Sundae" by a track from 1959. Jazz Giants '58 was remastered and released on CD in 2008 as part of Verve Originals series.[citation needed
