ULRICH GUMPERT QUINTET "MARKOWITZ' BLUES"

Here we have Gumpert's contribution to the soundtrack(s) for a famous and long going 'crime' series - quiet popular in Germany.
The model for the music is obviously Miles Davis' "Ascenseur pour l'échafaud" (Elevator to the Gallows) - but it has clearly it's own vibe.....and hey - what a line-up!


Heinz Becker, trumpet & fluegelhorn
Ernst-Ludwig Petrowsky, tenor saxophone
Ulrich Gumpert, piano
Klaus Koch, bass (9 to 35)
Matthias Bauer, bass (1 to 8, 36 to 39)
Günter Sommer, drums
