The second of two CDs in this series mostly consists of previously unissued material taken from a high school concert featuring the Gerry Mulligan Quartet (which at the time featured trumpeter Jon Eardley) plus two guests (valve trombonist Bob Brookmeyer and tenor-saxophonist Zoot Sims). This swinging and often-witty cool bop music is quite enjoyable and highly recommended.

After having heard Vol. 1 I had to get this one. It has mostly the same personnel as Vol. one with a few different players on some tracks. None the less it is another fine west coast jazz performance from the 50s. It is recorded on mono in a high school gym! Surprisingly good sound though. Vol. 1 and 2 are both worthy additions to any jazz fan's collection.
