The Complete Joe Henderson Blue Note Studio Sessions Now Available on Mosaic Records
When you get your copy of Mosaic’s new five-CD collector’s set, The Complete Joe Henderson Blue Note Studio Sessions, you’ll be holding a master key to unlocking 1960s jazz. That’s a big statement. But when you consider how much was happening from 1963 to 1966, the years covered by this collection, and contemplate how many different ...
Documentary: Stan Getz
In 1993, Jean-Pierre Larcher released his documentary of Stan Getz called People Time. Issued two years after Getz's death, the film was named for the tenor saxophonist's final album, a duet recording with pianist Kenny Barron. Today, the documentary is hard to come by. I found it in parts at the site of the Stan Getz ...

Maridalen: Maridalen
by Gareth Thompson
The use of sacred spaces has long been a feature of jazz recordings. Stan Getz and Charlie Byrd made their classic Jazz Samba (Verve, 1962) album at All Souls Church, Washington DC, whilst a converted Greek Orthodox site played home to Miles Davis' Kind Of Blue (Columbia, 1959). Among similar stories, the Norwegian act Moskus recorded ...
Giant Steps: Diverse Journeys in British Jazz
by David Burke
The following is a revised excerpt from “Chapter 3: Full Force Gail" of Giant Steps: Diverse Journeys in British Jazz by David Burke (Desert Hearts, 2021). In the 1980s, a new generation of black British musicians began to reconfigure the country's jazz scene, changing the face -and sound-of what had previously been a ...
Getz Meets Mulligan in Hi-Fi
There's a cross-dressing quality about the first three tracks on Getz Meets Mulligan in Hi-Fi. You hear the baritone and tenor saxophones but things seem a little inside out. The baritone has Stan Getz's mildness and the tenor sounds more like Mulligan's bouncing attack. In fact, Verve producer Norman Granz recorded just such a switch, which ...
Albert Ayler Quintet: 1966: Berlin, Lörrach, Paris & Stockholm. Revisited
by Mark Corroto
It may sound odd to describe the music that Albert Ayler's quintet performs here as the musical equivalent of comfort food, but these sounds can be associated with security and nostalgia. They are a reminder of the spark ignited by this tenor saxophonist from Cleveland. Ayler, maybe more than any artist of his day, paved the ...
