Starting in the late '50s, Gerry Mulligan recorded a series of encounters with fellow saxophonists that included such immortals as Stan Getz, Paul Desmond, Johnny Hodges and Ben Webster. In 1986 he resumed the practice for this one date on which his baritone is matched with the tenor of the young great Scott Hamilton. 

The music, which includes warm ballads and fairly hot romps (five of the seven songs are Mulligan originals), consistently swing and are quite enjoyable.~Scott Yanow http://www.allmusic.com/album/soft-lights-sweet-music-mw0000649667

Personnel: Gerry Mulligan (baritone saxophone), Scott Hamilton (tenor saxophone), Mike Renzi (piano), Jay Leonhart (bass), Grady Tate (drums)
