2 Feet in the Gutter is the final album led by jazz drummer Dave Bailey which was originally released on the Epic label in 1961.[1] The album features the first recording of "Comin' Home Baby" which became a top 40 hit for Mel Tormé.[2]
AllMusic reviewer Ken Dryden stated: "While this record is just a notch beneath Dave Bailey's earlier dates for Epic – One Foot in the Gutter and Gettin' Into Somethin' – it is definitely worth picking up".[3]
