About the Album
Master trumpeter/composer John McNeil's evolutionary new music, East Coast Cool, applies the classic West Coast jazz sound of the Gerry Mulligan-Chet Baker Quartet to the sensibilities of modern creative improvised music. The tunes on East Coast Cool (as is "Brother Frank") are mostly reminiscent of the Mulligan-Baker Quartets, containing elements of the sound and feel of that quartet's music without being re-creationist or imitative.
