Autum Leaves - Zoot Sims 1985<br />In 1985 somewhere in Sweden, Zoot played a session together with two top jazz musicians. <br />In a comfortable living room he recorded with bassist Red Mitchell and guitarist Rune Gustafsson the old and famous standard called Autumn Leaves. <br />Zoot died that year, unfortunately at only 59. This might have been his last recording. <br />Red Mitchell was the musician who tuned his bass in fifths, just like the violin and and the cello and this shows in his creative and unique solo work .<br />Rune Gustafsson, maybe it was done in his house, recorded already with Zoot in the late seventies. <br />All together this was done in a relaxed atmosphere and that shows in what you hear.
