The Tommy Tucker mentioned does not appear to be the Tommy Tucker of 'High Heel Sneakers' fame, so should not link to that article.Rothorpe 23:17, 13 January 2007 (UTC)rothorpe[reply]

Middle Career

I'm not sure where this should go, in Middle career or Pianoless Quartet but I don't see anything in the article about the 1954 Paris concert. To me this was a very important event in Mulligan's career, especially in international and European terms, maybe even in the U.S. I have the Vogue double album in excellent condition and it's a wonderful set, well recorded for the time, and especially considering it's live at the Salle Pleyel, a huge auditorium. Unless anyone objects I'm sure I could do a para or two based on the liner notes. Scunnerous 08:35, 2 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:GerryMulligan.jpg

Image:GerryMulligan.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Weird syntax

If anyone can sort this one out, please do so and return to article:

, later trumpeter Miles Davis was amazed by the band joining them, and because he was already a Jazz star the band was known as the Miles Davis Nonet although he only cooperated with 2 tunes "Budo(Miles Davis, Bud Powell, arranged by Lewis" and "Deception(arranged by Mulligan)"
