The Art Farmer Septet is an album by trumpeter Art Farmer, featuring performances recorded in 1953 and 1954, arranged by Quincy Jones and Gigi Gryce, and released by Prestige Records in 1956.[1] It is his earliest recorded full-length album, but was his third issued. The cover art was by cartoonist Don Martin.

The recordings made on July 2, 1953 are possibly the earliest studio recordings of the electric bass. The four tracks with electric bass, played by Monk Montgomery, display his facility with walking bass lines, bebop melodies, and Latin-style ostinato, (Chuck Rainey said that Monk was the first to record the electric bass).[2] Arranger Quincy Jones highlights Montgomery in the opening sections of three of the four tracks.

All of the players on the 1953 recording were at that time members of the Lionel Hampton Orchestra, and subsequently toured europe with Hampton from September to December 1953, except Sonny Johnson.[3][4] Johnson was a previous associate of bass player Monk Montgomery, from Indiana.[5]

The four tracks recorded in 1953 were first issued in 1954 on a 10-inch album Work of Art, on Prestige Records. Three singles were released, the first being “Mau Mau (Pt. 1 & 2)” (Prestige 875) in 1953.

Reception

{{Album ratings
| rev1 = AllMusic
| rev1Score = {{rating|4|5}}[6]
}}AllMusic called the album "An excellent early hard bop set".[6] The Penguin Guide to Jazz commented that the album demonstrates that Farmer's "style was already firmly in place: a pensive restraint on ballads, a fleet yet soberly controlled attack on uptempo tunes, and a concern for tonal manipulation within a small range of inflexions".[7]
