Stan Getz '57
CD (Item 612229) Verve (Japan), 1953 — Condition: New Copy
Stan Getz '57 – although the material was recorded in 1953 – a key year for Stan's musical development – at a time when he was just beginning to unfurl some of his best new ideas at Verve Records! The album's a crucial session with Bob Brookmeyer on valve trombone – also at a great early point in his career, and making some really magical sounds next to Stan's tenor – both of them a mix of lyrical and modern, yet in different ways – and with different tonal ranges that really make the music sparkle. Other players include John Williams on piano, Teddy Kotick on bass, and Frank Isola on drums – and the tracks are nice and long too – titles that include "Fascinating Rhythm", "Minor Blues", "Pot Luck", and "Love & the Weather". © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. | |||||
