Stan was the biggest influence on my playing. I think the first time I heard one of his recordings, I connected with him. I could feel what he felt when he played and when I was in a sad or depressed state, I'd sit in the dark and listen to Stan for hours. Thank God for allowing Stan to be part of my life.
Have always loved stans playing since my dad introduced me to his music when I was small. My father went to HS with him in the Bronx. Said - he charmed all his teachers... I guess something one is born with. Thanks Stan. Thanks dad.
That Abbey Lincoln is an incredible recording. Stan Getz's solos are simply marvelous. There's a couple of Cybil Sheppard videos on u tube of an album she recorded with Getz & his solos on that record are also incredibly great. Seems to me that he really enjoyed playing with & supporting vocalists. Getz was incredible - one of the greatest jazz musicians. He certainly has blessed & made my life more enjoyable through his playing. Thanks for uploading & sharing this great video of him with us.
I bought this album, "People Time" soon after it was released at a record store in LA & fell in love with every song & not long after, I happened to meet Stan's son, Steve at a meeting in the greater LA area I wanna say by chance but don't believe it was & we became friends, Steve eventually relocated to San Diego & gigged there for a while as Steve was a jazz drummer & this wasn't long after his dad, Stan Getz passed
In a conversation with a brilliant young black saxist back in 79/80 I in my youthful attempt to appear hip said something less than flattering about Desmond and Getz etc. I was set straight quickly. Trane also recognized Getz's greatness all real players would I think.
Anyone know what model horn Stan played? I think I read he played a Selmer Mk VI but since those didn't come out until '54 (I think) I was wondering what he played earlier on?
Dean Chovan, our angelic hero has come to inform us that Mr. Getz was a “lousy” person. Ohhh where would we be without Dean Chovan’s guidance and shining example of what a perfect humanoid could become. Go on Dean, let us know about all of your wonderful credentials and your spotless background of pure angelic behavior.

Everything about Getz’s music was just beautiful
Wow, the video starts with an improvisation on. "You'd Be So Nice to Come Home" too that is simoly amazing!

Never stop playing Stan :( RIP

Whenever I speak about Stan Getz it’s always in the present. He never left.
Had to look him up after seeing the Blank On Blank video.. one cool customer.
anyone know if there's more of the first clip of Stan Playing? is it from a concert that has been recorded?
that girl is a genius, you don't get that kind of depth from a kid
Title of the last song please
Is there anywhere I can see the whole documentary? Is it available for purchase?

conn 10, then super balanced action
Nightingale sang in Barclay square at the end I think (sp)
@LavaLampBlob A selmer balanced action I think.
The shutter sound effect ruins this…
great sax player. Lousy human being.
