Commentary:
Many critics at time of release complained about the two saxmen switching horns, but to me, it only made the album better. This is probably the best playing of Mulligan's on record, and definitely Getz's best.

- I've Just Seen Her (Charles Strouse-Lee Adams)
- Noblesse (Mulligan)
- Ghosts (Mulligan)
- Port of Baltimore Blues (Mulligan)
Commentary:
Scott Hamilton, known for his uncommon melodic sense and unabashed romantacism, seems a likely collaborator for Mulligan, and the effort paid off. They take things a little slower than the Mulligan/Getz session, but the mostly original ballads are outstanding, contributing to a well-defined mood.
