Reader Reviews
This disc is one that gets getter every time I listen to it. When it first came out, I was a little annoyed because it seemed overproduced. However, in retrospect, it doesn't matter how much "fluff" you add, Getz's playing manages to make the experience memorable. Stan Getz is one of those rare artists who has the ability to take someone else's songs and make them distinctly his own. Although he was not a prolific music writer, his interpretatations have left an indelible mark on the world of jazz. Getz is a master of the understatement. He doesn't add notes where they are not needed. He does not rely on the Kenny G school of pointless arpegios to astound us with his swift (though undeniable flat) fingerwork. I am always amazed by his clarity of pitch. Stan Getz was truly a master, and I only regret that I was unable to see him perform live.
