About this album
Gettin' Together! is a striking early-1960s statement from Art Pepper, balancing hard-bop drive with the cool, poised lyricism that made him such a distinctive alto saxophonist. Recorded in 1960, it finds Pepper in fluent, expressive form across a set that moves easily between original material and standards, with the title piece and interpretations such as Softly, As in a Morning Sunrise showing both his melodic sensitivity and rhythmic bite. The album is widely regarded as one of the key documents of Pepper's West Coast period, capturing an artist whose tone and phrasing could be both relaxed and intensely inventive.
