I really like Skull Sessions and Return The Tides too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted 10 August NP: Jimmy Smith - Bluesmith (Verve, 1972) features some superb tenor work by Teddy Edwards Smith's Root Down (also issued in '72) may have been more contemporary -- and it definitely made a bigger splash -- but I like Bluesmith better.

Posted 11 August 15 hours ago, jazzbo said: Stan Getz & Chet Baker "The Stockholm Concerts" Verve cd 3 Nice accompaniment and pretty darned nice sound. Bass – George Mraz Drums – Victor Lewis Piano – Jim McNeely Tenor Saxophone – Stan Getz Trumpet – Chet Baker I have read so much about that tour, I think mostly in some book about Chet Baker. The music must be great and it has a fantastic rhythm section. But I heard it was almost impossible to make it happen, because away from music they almost were fighting, I mean two live long junkies with bad temper, and though Chet was playing better than ever since his comeback and mostly over here in Europe, Stan Getz was the bigger name...

I’ve only seen videos of these concerts that included backstage interviews from Getz. He seemed perturbed bc in a sense it was like he was getting upstaged by Baker in more ways than one. Chet’s playing here is certainly enjoyable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
