 | Jazz Samba Encore! [Read More ...] Review: Saudade Vem Correndo:I have been searching for this album for 5 years. 5 years ago, I was on Semester at Sea and was spending one of the many long nights at sea (between ports) exchanging music with friends. My friend from Japan gave me several of her favorite Bossa Nova cds, ... |
 | Getz Gilberto [Read More ...] Review: Great Album, but terribly mastered:Upon hearing the original vinyl pressing, I wanted to have a copy to put my SACD player to use. I was very disappointed in the mastering of this SACD. THe recording levels were much too high, and there was no dynamic range to speak of. There wer... |
 | Stan Getz With Cal Tjader [Read More ...] Review: Not merely latin:This extremely pleasant and ellegant album uses latin rhythms, as one would expect, but it is a genuine jazz record, with some nice take on the gentle standards that Getz played so soulfully and cleverly,
with Tjader's swinging unit providing the added value of f... |
 | Getz/Gilberto #2 [Read More ...] Description: This live follow-up to the surprise blockbuster Getz/Gilberto was inevitable. Interestingly, the original LP release of the October 1964 Carnegie Hall concert focused on separate sets by Getz's quartet (featuring vibist Gary Burton) and Gilberto's trio: each is as meditative and ... |
 | Getz/Gilberto #2 [Read More ...] Why do they reissue stuff with fewer tracks?:There are 5 tracks missing compared to the 1993 version. The entire CD is 35 minutes. |
 | Diz and Getz [Read More ...] Review: The Unvarnished Truth :This early meeting between Diz and Getz may be more satisfying than the duets with Rollins and Stitt, the meeting with both ("Sonny Side Up"), or the three-way interaction of Diz, Getz and Stitt on "For Musicians Only." On this Diz-Getz '54 recording, the ... |
 | Getz Au Go Go [Read More ...] Japanese reissue of the jazz act's 1964 album. Verve. 2004. |
 | Stan Getz with Cal Tjader [Read More ...] Review: Stan and Cal work well together:It's unusual to find Stan Getz recording on the Fantasy label in 1958, when these sides were made, getting second billing no less. He could thank his boss Norman Granz for that, though, who "loaned" Getz to Fantasy to record with Tjader "for a fee.... |
 | Vol. 1-Dedicated To Antonio Carlos Jobim [Read More ...] Wow... Great Brazilian music!:This CD is one of my favorites! I'm a Bossa lover, and this album contains some of the most famous songs, such as Quiet Nights, How Insensitive and Desafinado. This is a must-have. The only famous song missing is The Girl from Ipanema. |
 | Jazz 'Round Midnight: Bossa Nova [Read More ...] Review: Transcendental Experience:There was only one Stan Getz. This disc is an excellent cross-section of the best stuff he produced during the bossa nova years. He has many bossa nova albums, but if you don't want to buy them all, then this single disk, jam-packed with music, should su... |
 | Stan Getz with Cal Tjader (XRCD) [Read More ...] Extended Resolution CD. Here is a true jazz classic. When this session was recorded in 1958, Stan Getz and Cal Tjader had already established themselves as masters of bebop and ballads. And what a band! Getz and Tjader are joined by Scott LaFaro, Billy Higgins, Vince Guaraldi and Eddie Duran. |
