1 & 2 are a pair of separate but related live albums by American jazz trumpeter Freddie Hubbard recorded at la Marchal jazz club over Friday and Saturday night, April 9–10, 1965[citation needed] and released on Blue Note in 1965 and 1966 respectively.

The septet features horn section Lee Morgan, James Spaulding, rhythm section Harold Mabern, Jr., Larry Ridley and Pete LaRoca, and percussionist Big Black.

AllMusic critic Ron Wynn says, "Hubbard was a master of tonguing effects, high-voltage upper notes, and long phrases, while Morgan was a hypnotic improviser.

The two trumpeters, despite their consistent brilliance, were almost outdistanced by alto saxophonist and flutist James Spaulding, then at his peak.

Spaulding's effortlessly played, torrid alto solos were explosive and often dazzling.
