Stan Getz Community

Remembering Stan...

I am always on the lookout for rare or hard to find recordings from Stan.
This would be a great place to talk about our latest discoveries.

Well to start the ball rolling. About a month ago I was told about
the Gerald Wilson Big Band Modern reissue. 15 tracks altogether.
Tracks 1-8 are a reissue from a 1954 studio session. Tracks 9-15
are a previously unissued 1950 concert in San Francisco's Veterans Memorial
with guest stars Wardell Gray, Stan Getz and Zoot Sims.
Each one of these great sax players is given a showcase
tune and they finish the concert all blowing great solos and trading fours
on Hollywood Freeway.

Stan plays the beautiful "Out Of Nowhere". The way he quotes Broadway is just
too much;)

Stan Getz Live at Stanford University.

Jan 17, 1988

Just after Stan's operation. A concert was held at Stanford.
This date is noteworthy because of Stan's health at the time.
Just coming back from a tough operation to take out a malignant tumor.
Still his sound is absolutely gorgeous.
What a joy to hear Jack Sheldon and George Cables.

Source : Radio broadcast

The personnel

George Cables piano, Jack Sheldon trumpet & vocals , Kim Park alto, Chuck Israels bass, Donald Bailey drums

The tracks

Well'be Together Again
I Got Rhythm
Obbligatos
On Green Dolphin Street

Moving performances all around.


Thanks to my dear friend Roger Hunter.

Thanks for pointing me to the alto recording. Wow, I wish I wish I had a whole album (or two) of Stan on alto. MM

Long out of print and for a very good reason it is not a very good album,Stan and Terry, Oscar were what made it bareable. The Musicians on this one must of really worked hard to make her sound any were near good!!!!
but still Stan was the out standing one for sure........Rick
I would like to thank you for your input I have been doing a great amount of research on the net and found so very much about Stan's side work and now have a real lot a albums to hunt down and get.My over all collection [Jazz] is very large and could not believe I was missing so much of Stan and his side work,but now have a very good insite on what I would like to get for my collection.. Thanks again Rick
