Stan Getz: Live At The Left Bank
by John Sharpe
The story behind how this session came to be is almost as exciting as the recording itself. Baltimore’s Left Bank Jazz Society was formed in 1964 by a group devoted to promoting and preserving jazz in the city. Soon the organization was hosting weekly concerts featuring outstanding local, national, and international jazz performers. In the mid-eighties ...
Stan Getz: Award Winner
by David Adler
On this reissued 1957 session, Stan Getz is joined by pianist Lou Levy, bassist Leroy Vinnegar, and drummer Stan Levey. Getz’s sublime tone and flawlessly swinging solos don’t even require comment. He reaches Rollins-level heights of cleverness and fire on a nine-minute-plus version of “This Can’t Be Love." Lou Levy shares much of the spotlight with ...

Stan Getz Quartet with Chet Baker: Quintessence, Vol. 1
by Jack Bowers
So Stan Getz and Chet Baker weren’t the best of friends offstage. It’s what they accomplished onstage that is of greatest interest to Jazz historians and most other listeners. Apparently, they were able to set aside their personal differences long enough at least to make lovely music together, as they sometimes do on Quintessence, a concert ...
Stan Getz Quartet With Chet Baker: Quintessence, Vol. 1
by Jim Santella
What a pair! Stan Getz and Chet Baker in 1983 before a live audience in Norway. Two icons of the jazz world performing standards. With talk of a pending feature-length movie about Chet Baker fresh on the horizon, remembering his clean trumpet sound and his singing voice at this time seems quite appropriate. Baker left us ...
