AMG Review of Stan Getz Plays [Clef Version]

Scott Yanow
All Music Guide

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. [Verve's 2004 Clef Edition sported eight tracks.]
