That pair is amazing! Such wonderful music they made! We are fortunate having the chance to enjoy their recordings and watch them playin together in the videos.
I was privileged to see Getz perform in Sausalito, years ago, I wish I had been able to see Chet perform, they are two very talented musicians, whose talent will never be forgotten.
speaking as a jazz musician myself, when i watch Stan Getz's left foot start tapping on the floor at 4:50 I AM IN AWE of the greatness. the notes are a given, his grasp of the time cannot be conveyed to someone who didn't see what i saw.
Stumbled across this in 2024. When baker is on he is so on. His solos sound like he spends hours planning them out. So fluid and melodic. Don’t get me wrong. Getz is one of my favorites, an absolute beast that respects the changes while moving in and out of melody in a way few others can only dream of but, bakers solo here is so melodic you almost forget what is underneath.
There is zero wrong with being compared to Miles. It is a complement of the highest order because very few were compared to Miles, Chet was an exception.
Alain James Chet played as he sang, and sang as he played. The two things are inseparable. His singing was exceptionally pure of pitch and tone...just like his playing. “I don’t know whether I’m a trumpet player who sings, or a singer who plays trumpet.”
Hahaha are you Kidding me? Miles by 83' had already re invented Music and done things that NO one had achieved as a whole, while these cats still played like in the 60's doing standards, w all respect to Baker and the ppl he worked with but Never compare Miles Davis to ANYONE. This is why the ''Jazz'' scene is done. Because of this purist melancholic nonsense. Miles never looked back he looked Miles Miles ahead!!
@@eddiemperor Miles was an innovator and experimenter, whereas Chet was content to remain within jazz borders. Both approaches are equally valid. Some of us prefer the older styles. You might prefer Mexican food, and I might prefer a plain burger.
What used to make these encounters so exciting was what state they were in when they went onto the stand you never really knew what you were going to get and then when it all comes together and they look so cool about it you can't compare it to anything else.
Chet baker is, hands down, my favorite bop trumpet player. He has the same sort of approach that makes me love Bix Beiderbecke: reserved and cool, not too flashy or any of that nonsense.
Now I like Chet, but he was certainly second to Dizzy Gillespie, Miles Davis, Clifford Brown, Fats Navarro, Kenny Dorham, Lee Morgan, Booker Little, Art Farmer, Freddie Hubbard, Woody Shaw...just to name a few.
You do know that 'second to none' means the best or at least tied with the best. Do you honestly think he equals or exceeds the trumpet players that I mentioned in my earlier post?
Listen to Chet Baker with Mulligan in1952 and 1953! You will get the point! Apart from early Chet Baker, my favorite trumpet players are Fats Navarro, Clifford Brown, Booker Little, Don Ferrara, Clarence (Gene) Shaw, Tony Fruscella... NO Freddie Hubbard or trumpeters like him!
I love the superb variation on a theme of the original introduction. Sheer magic! But would Mr Rollins approve? (I think he would). Joe Silmon-M, in the UK.
When these two giants team up there's a series of wonderful explosive interplays of the most exhilarating Jazz. Airegin has brought the best out of them both in this performance. Magnificent! But who is the wonderful backing trio? I have an idea it's Chet's backing trio. Please correct me if I'm wrong. Who are these fantastic musicians?
P, did you not know of Stan's heroin habit. He cleaned up for a while but fell back into it at one time. He thought he had his serious health problems licked but the liver cancer returned and killed him in, I believe '91.
Chet wasn't loaded on this particular cut. It's a just a challenging tempo for him. He's totally an ear player. He never quite got off the ground but he had really some nice moments. Stan was a tough bandleader and likely to vibe you if you weren't quite making it. McNeely wasn't nailing the pocket on his solo which is why he was probably doing what he was doing. He also gave the band a quick turnaround with his horn when they went to the head vamp on the trades - he wanted straight walk.
Stan Getz- tenor sax
Chet Baker- trumpet, vocals
Jim McNeely- piano
George Mraz- bass
Victor Lewis- drums
Jim McNeely - wow - what a revelation here
Victor Lewis - took me back the whole way, bless you, bless you
Thanks for the info ! Cheers. !!
Same personnel as the Quintessence album (2 volumes), recorded in Oslo 1983 (same tour). Great stuff no matter what!
Victor Lewis the great drummer who played with Woody Shaw 🐬
Victor Lewis is relentless on that ride cymbal
That pair is amazing! Such wonderful music they made! We are fortunate having the chance to enjoy their recordings and watch them playin together in the videos.
Oh man, what a great performance! Every one seems to be on his best day. Vic Lewis is killing it!
I was privileged to see Getz perform in Sausalito, years ago, I wish I had been able to see Chet perform, they are two very talented musicians, whose talent will never be forgotten.
Who would ever get enough of Stan and Chet?
Guten Morgen from Linz, Austria. Have a nice day!

Drummer is killer. What a well put together piece of music
interpretazione eccezionale,classe,fantasia,genialità.Due giganti del jazz!!!
Great! Absolutely. Missing that side of our music planet.
At 7:43...Love Stan's quote from Darktown Strutter's Ball!! Clever.
LOL nice catch!
Muito bom !!!
Abraços do Brasil 🇧🇷 !!!
this is good so good
Getz and Baker. No comment required. Just shut up, stop thinking, and listen!!!
That's one about motion. Love it.
Yessiree! A real delikatessen!
I feel like in my favorite music deli.
Two absolute jazz legends.
É fabulosa toda essa energia que emanam, sinto que vai tomando conta de tudo dentro da gente. É algo ascendente, demais!
I had never heard Chet so ''full of energy''..great solos,great armony build up!
A classic song, and a superb collaboration. Thank you!
Due GRANDI DEL JAZZ MONDIALI !!!
A damn fine collaboration. Can't get enough of it.
MUCHAS GRACIAS, MY FRIEND!
What a great group!!!
music alleviates all pain (for the moment)
God bless
Thanks for the awesome vid,,the sound is amazing. 🎶
I never get to hear Getz rip like this, I'm looking for more!
A delikatessen indeed. So utterly enjoyable.
Have a nice day!
Ahh yes! The ugly sweater concert footage! I've been searching for years! God Bless you, man!
Its Stockholm Sweden in Febuary, get real !
AH Chet et Stan un régal !!!!!! Juste écouter .....!!!!
TWO GUYS WHO MASTERED THIS MUSIC WE CALL JAZZ. THANKS FOR THE UPLOAD.
wow this is so well performed.
Timeless, looking into the future of music! Todays contempory players pale in comparision to the greatness of Stan and Chet! This was the real deal!
Chet Baker was unfairly compared to Miles Davis. He had his own style .This was a very good set. There was a good blend of the horns.
There is zero wrong with being compared to Miles. It is a complement of the highest order because very few were compared to Miles, Chet was an exception.
I think Chet was a better trumpet player than Miles - but I can't get with his singing.
Alain James Chet played as he sang, and sang as he played. The two things are inseparable. His singing was exceptionally pure of pitch and tone...just like his playing. “I don’t know whether I’m a trumpet player who sings, or a singer who plays trumpet.”

WOW! So glad I found this...thank you for posting it!!!
They are both lit up. Chet is using his horn to hold himself up but then falls right into a beautiful run. Amazing! They are both throwing down!
Very happy that I discovered this tune.
Stan is one of the great saxophone players in Jazz.
Thanks!
CHE MUSICA.......STUPENDA !!!!👏👏👌🎷🎷💖💙😇😇

DI QUESTI ENORMI TALENTI PURTROPPO NON NE ESISTONO PIU ' !!!!!!
Chet baker is, hands down, my favorite bop trumpet player. He has the same sort of approach that makes me love Bix Beiderbecke: reserved and cool, not too flashy or any of that nonsense.
Thanks Ron Weber. Now I understood Victor Lewis on drums. Also, Jim McNeely, piano and George Mraz on bass. Wow Mraz!!
Oh whadda groove!
Thank you!
Big THAAAAAAANKS, my friend!
They are so cool, just sits down and beeing there. And then play magic!
Thank you. Great to hear this wonderful music.
fantastico duo!
Stanley and the Baker......what an experience.
Wow...Thanks so MUCH for posting this Video ! Chet and Stan have always been this Trumpet player's heros ! Great Video !
Stunning all the way.
Thanks so much for the great upload.
Chet and Stan are great at their instruments!
Holy shit! What a band!
Great team up Jazzy !!!!
Both Baker and Getz are in excellent form!
Awesome.TY n for posting..
Chet definitely held his own. He was second to none!
Now I like Chet, but he was certainly second to Dizzy Gillespie, Miles Davis, Clifford Brown, Fats Navarro, Kenny Dorham, Lee Morgan, Booker Little, Art Farmer, Freddie Hubbard, Woody Shaw...just to name a few.
Frank Frank Bro, Chet's phrasing was incredible. He's a top improviser, no doubt about it.
Chet was second to none, a class by himself!

I love the superb variation on a theme of the original introduction. Sheer magic! But would Mr Rollins approve? (I think he would). Joe Silmon-M, in the UK.
Baker and Getz didn't like each other, but you would not know that ... their playing is great together 👏🎶🎼😁🎺💖
That's a killer Jim McNeely piano solo up front.
classic getz baker mcneely and of course always smooth on drums Victor Lewis

Nice
de äro ju jazzgiganter ! - att dom spelade i Sthlm .. TOPPEN ... ska vi minnas - jaaa
My cat's name is Chet in honor...
P, did you not know of Stan's heroin habit. He cleaned up for a while but fell back into it at one time. He thought he had his serious health problems licked but the liver cancer returned and killed him in, I believe '91.
You really know how to brighten up a party....
I think
Your wrong.as far as I know.he died in an accident.fell out of the window in Amsterdam.probably stoned.
@@nivrox95 that was Chet
@@barentfoley101 yes I was talking about Chet..guess I didn’t notice he wrote about Stan Getz.
I really like Stan's playing on this cut. Chet was OK.
These two sure don't look too healthy.
Both had big problems with opiate addiction.
After reading a mini biography on Chet Baker I'm surprised he lived as long as he did.
@@stevendreith4343 How long do you want to live?To be able to play this stuff I could easily buy the farm early doors.Jim.
It is indeed. Chet in top form.
Some tender people simply have to do it.
It's such a jazzy taste LOL.
Victor Lewis is the killer drummer. Jim McNeely on piano, and George Mraz is pluckin' the bass fiddle. Soothing, and healing, eh?
Chet is Miles without the occasional sour notes Miles would play. Both extremely beautiful in their spacing.
Is there some strange reason why the rhythm section musicians are not mentioned?
Yeah, MAAAAAN!
Je n"oublie pas Jim McNeely au piano et Georges Mraz à la basse ....!!!!
cool
can Stan take a walk during solos
He can do what ever he likes so long as he makes that beautiful music.
Do you think Chet and Stan didn't get along at that particular moment?
Chet é Foda!!
Chet wasn't loaded on this particular cut. It's a just a challenging tempo for him. He's totally an ear player. He never quite got off the ground but he had really some nice moments.

He also gave the band a quick turnaround with his horn when they went to the head vamp on the trades - he wanted straight walk.
Chet has about 5 years left, and Stan's got 8. Wow, life is short.
yeah, especially if you throw your life away. Hollywood wanted to make Baker a star, but he said, "no thanks, i'd rather do heroin."
