Recorded at the legendary Sweet Basil club, this cool jazz gem showcases Mitchell's masterful bass playing and his ability to create a rich, engaging soundscape with just a duo. The album features eight tracks, each a classic in its own right, from the sultry 'It's You or No One' to the upbeat 'Topsy'. Mitchell's interpretation of these standards is fresh and invigorating, highlighting his unique style and virtuosity. With a runtime of just under 47 minutes, 'The Duo' is a concise yet powerful journey through the world of cool jazz. Released in 1994 by Fresh Sound Records, this album is a testament to Red Mitchell's enduring legacy and his significant contributions to the jazz genre."
