Our Take
In the 1960s, the word on the street was that jazz heavyweight Stan Getz took a little trip to Morocco and came back with Marrakesh Expressin - an album that's as exotic and alluring as the city itself. The opener, "Marrakesh Blues," sets the tone with sultry saxophone solos that transport you straight to the bustling streets of the medina. Getz's mastery of his instrument is on full display here, weaving in and out of intricate melodies with the finesse of a seasoned pro. But it's not just Getz who shines on this record - the backing band is tight, groovy, and locked in from start to finish. Tracks like "Cafe Casbah" and "Desert Dreaming" showcase their ability to create a rich, textured backdrop for Getz's improvisations. And when they all come together on the title track, "Marrakesh Expressin," it's a full-blown musical feast that'll have you dancing in your seat. Sure, there are moments where the album veers into the realm of cheesy exotica, but Getz's sincerity and musicality ultimately shine through. With Marrakesh Expressin, Stan Getz proves once again why he's considered one of the greats in jazz music. So go ahead, grab a glass of mint tea, close your eyes, and let this album transport you to the enchanting world of Marrakesh. You won't regret it.
