<p>I have several cassette tapes of live recordings from Lawrence Kansas, at both a local jazz club and from the university or public radio station. I'm not sure what to do with them. They are well-mastered and very clean recordings. Any suggestions?</p>

<p><span class="font-size-3" style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">And on the first date, it sounds like Oscar is playing with Stan, does that make sense?</span></p>

<p>I am a great fan of Stan Getz music for I have heard his music from earlie to late times. The perception of music he had is clear, in a mysterious way (to me) he always achieves to find the right musical words in every tune he played, giving the color to music that Stan knew. I don't want to underestymate nobody but as far as i have heard music nobody did it like he did. Of course this is one side of the coin that needs a lot of discussion with a more musical approach.</p>

<p> The other side is the marvelous '' Out of this World '' tone coming out of his horn. That unique sound is defenetly a resolt of a lot of practising and finaly overwalming yourself achievment fitted with suitable equipment.</p>
<p>Focusing on his mouthpiece set up can anybody give some information rather than those that internet blogs gives, about his setup? </p> A rememberancetag:stangetz.ning.com,2011-06-19:2085102:Topic:460042011-06-19T18:32:57.799ZPaul Woodhttp://stangetz.ning.com/profile/PaulWood
<p>In 1962, at 13, my jazz loving grandmother introduced me to Stan Getz. When I say 'introduced' I don't mean in-person, but it seemed like it to me.</p>
<p>I was asked to sit in the sweet spot while my grandmother played the album, 'Big Band Bossa Nova'. These 40-something minutes were to change me and my life, both for the good.</p>

<p>In 1962, at 13, my jazz loving grandmother introduced me to Stan Getz. When I say 'introduced' I don't mean in-person, but it seemed like it to me.</p>
<p>I was asked to sit in the sweet spot while my grandmother played the album, 'Big Band Bossa Nova'. These 40-something minutes were to change me and my life, both for the good.</p>
<p>I sank into the music, it was like a giant pillow for something in my soul, my, as yet unencumbered soul. I had only a moderate exposure to my grandmothers music at this time, but I found myself spending many more hours with this precious lady and her stereo . She was very eclectic in her musical taste, primarily jazz and classical, with a multitude of other genres in between.</p>
<p>I started to collect every album that I could find with Stan playing on it. I was lucky because my aunt worked at A&A Records on Yonge St. in Toronto.</p>
<p>A few doors down the street was Sam the Record Man that had a dedicated Jazz department headed by the wonderful John Norris. John taught me so much and helped to open my young mind to all sorts of music. Between he and my grandmother, I developed a rather mature music collection for someone as young as myself then.</p>
<p>I cannot recall a week in my life that I have not spent an hour or two with Stan Getz in my room. We've become very good acquaintances over the years. He playing so masterfully and with so much revealing emotion. Me, sitting respectfully, taking in the gift that he is playing.</p>
<p>I believe that I have about 150 albums with Stan on them. It is a while since I counted. I am always amazed at the breadth of style and the depths of what is emanating from his horn. He has a quality that haunts you in a wonderfully positive way.</p>
<p>I am honoured to be able to say these few thoughts and recollections to you Bev and everyone here, I appreciate the opportunity.</p>
<p>In my nearly 50 years of listening to your Dad, I am still blown away by him!</p>
<p>My only regret, if I may be permitted, is that I never had a chance to thank him personally for these 50 years.</p>
<p><font size="3">A sheynem dank, Mr. Getz, shalom!</font></p>
<p>Kind regards,</p>

I recently came up with an old piece of 8mm movie film that was in my Dads possessions when he died in the Fiji Islands in 1972.<br />
<br />
The film was only 2 minutes and 38 seconds long but contained the only known video of my Dad and his 25' trimaran yacht "Tri-Tiki".<br />
<br />
As nearly as I can tell the video was shot in New Zealand probably shortly after he bought the yacht there in 1971.<br />

I recently came up with an old piece of 8mm movie film that was in my Dads possessions when he died in the Fiji Islands in 1972.<br />

<br />
As nearly as I can tell the video was shot in New Zealand probably shortly after he bought the yacht there in 1971.<br />
<br />
Being of the old silent 8mm film generation I decided to set the video to music.<br />
<br />
After listening to many of my favorite jazz albums trying to find just the right piece of music I decided on the track "Captain Marvel" from the album of the same name.<br />
<br />
I made my decision based on the fact that I had always thought of my father when listening to<br />
the electric piano work of Chick Korea on this album. My father was a working Jazz pianist and although I had never heard him play (he left the states when I was two years old and never returned) for some reason I imagined that this would be his sound.<br />
<br />
It wasnt until after completing the editing and transfering the video to DVD format that I discovered while reading the liner notes from the Captain Marvel cd that this album was recorded in 1972, the same year that my father died and very near the same time the old 8mm film was shot. I knew then that I had made the right selection!<br />
<br />
Sorry for the rambling this story has probably turned into.<br />
I just want to encourage all you Stan Getz fans to dig out your copy of "Captain Marvel" and take a few minutes off from the rat race of life for some quality time with some of the best Jazz music ever recorded.<br />
Stan Getz is accompanied by Chick Corea on electric piano, Stanley Clarke on Electric bass, Tony Williams on drums and Airto Moreira on percussion. top 100 songs and from what album to put in my playertag:stangetz.ning.com,2009-11-21:2085102:Topic:228172009-11-21T22:58:46.572ZPaul Woodhttp://stangetz.ning.com/profile/PaulWood
