A sax player with a great melodic tone and feeling. He became famous by tunes like Desafinado and The Girl from Ipanema, touring with Jazz At The Philharmonic worldwide. He was a great musician one of the best with many ups and downs in his lifetime. Love him! R.I.P Stan!
Yes, kinda like Chet Baker, Bill Evans, Art Pepper, etc... I met Stan's son kinda by chance not long after Stan passed at a Group meeting in LA & we got to be friends for awhile & he reflected on the highs & lows of his famous dad as I have with my dad who passed several yrs ago & your point is well taken! 'Stan's last album not long before he passed' with Kenny Barron is a Rembrandt "People Time".....
Amazing. Just amazing!!! Thank You so much for posting this. I never saw Stan Getz until this. Blessings and Gratitude. I imagaine this is from Danmarks Radio/TV. Super quality sound and vision and what a Master!
Magnifique duo et interprétation. Stan Getz au sommet de son art. Que dire de cette déclinaison d’une gamme majeure aux alentours de 2:40. Jouée par le commun des mortels, cela ferait un peu bateau mais par un tel musicien...
@Mark Schultz Agreed. Choosing between Coltrane, Rollins, Getz or Gordon is like choosing between mom, dad, grandma or grandpa. I just can't, gotta give em all some love.
Sorry, but I disagree, with all due respect to Stan Getz's musical skill. This is all right as it is here, I suppose, but after hearing Bunny Berigan's original 1937 recording (I knew his daughter Joyce and some of his sidemen), this is a hatchet-job on the melody line. **Now let's see all the outrageous indignation over that. I expect to be condemned for stating the truth.
I’m not a musician, but I agree that Bunny’s version is the great one. I most love Ella’s versions of this,, and like Sinatra’s, with the alternative lyrics. I prefer it with words. But for Stan Getz lovers, he touches the heart in a special way, and I see this as I do Impressionistic painting. He may take liberties, “butcher it”, but I get that melody line from other versions, and I enjoy his beautiful style. It’s all art, and we like the artists we like...
A different time. A different place. This wish to preserve, what some jazz listeners, regard as 'The Word', is misguided. Jazz is a living and ever changing and developing genre, and without this, it will solidify into irrelevance. Personally I love all jazz, Bunk Johnson to Coltrane and beyond. Getz was sublime.

They start with the bridge! How I love Kenny's comping. And Stan is beyond rating.
Well, this is pretty much perfect ! Can music ever get more beautiful than this?

" The sound " at his very best... what a treat, thanks for sharing this masterpiece ;-)
Magnificent as always!
Wonderful performance !
so very cool of Stan to let the rhythm section close out the tune...

They all good Baby!
damn
Qui dit que le jazz est sans projet ? en tout cas celui de nous emporter dans le bien-être au moins durant 11 minutes 28...
Not my favourite instrument to be honest, but when Stan plays there is no better sound!
For my money the best sax player in jazz, there, l said it!!!!! Above Coltrane, Shorter, Marsalis, Watts and anybody else. Let the lashing begin!!!!!!
@Mark Schultz l celebrate them all, l just celebrate Getz a liitle bit more, good points my friend.
@Mark Schultz l have my favorites as well, like Charlie Rouse (way underrated) johnny Griffith and others, but Getz is one level up! Just saying!
@Mark Schultz Right on! Thanks for the link! Cheers.

His tone is definitely some of the best. Just blows me away every time.
拜託不要😢
