Tenor saxophonist
Stan Getz is in excellent form playing with one of his finest groups, a quintet with guitarist
Jimmy Raney and pianist
Duke Jordan. Although the music does not quite reach the excitement level of the
Getz-
Raney Storyville session, this music (particularly the ballads) really shows off the tenor's appealing tone. This set is rounded out by four titles that
Getz cut with a quartet in 1954 that co-starred pianist
Jimmy Rowles. ~ Scott Yanow
