This was one of the last Concerts of Stan getz, he died to cancer shortly after thisone. He loved and lived the music until the end of his life. I think most of modern Pop musicians dont even know what is love to music thats really sad.
1st. amazing solos. 2nd. Terri Carrington is beasting on those drums. 3rd. I play bass and im playing this song for a concert this year at my school. Im in 8th grade.
Stan Getz has one of the purest, textured sax-sounds. There are handful of the great sax-Meister's, but is my favorite. My opinion is slightly skewed because as a young man, I had the opportunity to see and hear him live at small nightclub in 1973-1974.... One of the best evenings of my life,
I am so glad they recorded this performance. I have spent my whole life studying him and still can't believe his genius. We were all blessed by his presence.
+Robin Habermehl Yep, Getz was my biggest influence. I studied clarinet when I was 8 years old until I was about 13. Then I listened to one of my father's Stan Getz albums. WOW, Getz is why I play sax today.
@@garyiampaglia9030 Love Stan so much too, but it was Paul Desmond discovered at 16 years old in 1960 that flipped my wig.. still performing. Thought Stan and Desmond had similar melodic gifts....
Kenny Barron and Alex Blake = Fucking INSANE out of this world skills. OMG - I can't even believe what I just heard and saw. How the F--- does Alex Blake play that double bass behind and ABOVE his FREAKING HEAD?!!!!!!! And the bass just freaking DRIVES AND DRIVES THE RHYTHM section.
JUst here again listening to what is still my favorite video on You Tube All of us are so lucky to see and hear this. I met and heard Satn once 1976 ona Jazz Cruise on Rotterdam. awesome then as forever. Once in a lifetime a player like him. Coltrane supposedly said of Stan" we'd all play like that , if we could "
It's all about relaxing and enjoying and listening to every one around you in the band and this just smashes it with such a brilliant line up fantastic. Thank you Stan and the band
What a performance by Getz and what a rhythm section! I love this challenging tune by Victor Feldman and Miles Davis. These pros make it look so easy. Peace, Peter
This is how a very tiny bass player can be one of the greatest at the same time... Super piano solo and awesome, this drummer lady! Too bad that Stan couldn't join them not much longer anymore with his last days already in sight.
Written by a Guy called Victor Feldman a little known Brit who was a virtuoso pianist and all round great great bloke who unfortunately died young from what appears to be a broken heart. Also unfortunately you can see the cancer in Stan's face but his playing is utterly sublime,
Love Stan's music, but it's interesting how he always seems slightly in awe of the chops of those around him. Funny to watch his face as he admires the work of guys--like Barron--who can play at a level to which he only aspired, for all his talent.
Stan was great right up to the end. Terry Lynn Carrington was featured on Boston's premier jazz radio show - Eric Jackson - back when she was a teen still getting it together. She was already a killer, and eveyone knew it.
Only fugs could have down thumbed this masterpiece and a genius like stan God bless you stan for leaving us this great legacy Sennen Dourado Milwaukee Wisconsin

@pmr360 -- How you're familiar with Bill Evans and don't know Kenny Barron is perplexing. As a kid (20+) he replaced Lalo Schifrin as Dizzy Gillespie's pianist in the mid 1960's. Some wikipedia and youtube research is in order for you. Try "The Art of Three - Billy Cobham, Ron Carter and Kenny Barron" for a start. BTW - he's the 2010 headliner for the Monterey Jazz Festival on tour.
