Altoist Herb Geller had become a fixture on the LA jazz scene and his wife Lorraine a well respected pianist who played with many of the best West Coast musicians. In 1954-55 the couple were playing side by side in a quartet and this CD contains their complete recorded output together, garnered from EP/LP releases:
The sensational saxophone of Herb Geller - EP Imperial IMP-121 Herb Geller Plays - EmArcy MG-36045The Gellers - EmArcy MG-36024The Herb Geller Sextet - EmArcy MG-36040

They formed an exceptional tandem and their playing carried a distinct sound, a harmonic quality that was neither his or hers.

Reviews

Jazz Review - Jack Cooke

Twenty-eight tracks conform to the quartet format, with consistently able and professional support from some of California's finest. It's an intriguing blend of New York and California, worth exploring; necessary, even, if this is your period.
