Our Take

Stan Getz Quartet's performance at the Newport Jazz Festival 1964 is a tasty treat that will leave you craving for more. Getz's smooth and effortless saxophone playing is like butter melting on a hot scone - simply irresistible.

The quartet effortlessly blends together the perfect mix of bebop and bossa nova, creating a sound that is both nostalgic and fresh. Getz's melodic phrasing is like a fine wine, getting better with age.

The rhythm section, comprised of Steve Kuhn on piano, John Neves on bass, and Roy Haynes on drums, is tight and groovy, providing the perfect foundation for Getz to soar on his solos. Kuhn's piano playing is like a sprinkle of magic dust, adding just the right amount of sparkle to each track.

Highlights of the album include the enchanting "Corcovado" and the lively "Con Alma", which showcase Getz's versatility and virtuosity. Each track is a journey through a musical landscape filled with surprises and delights.

Overall, Stan Getz Quartet's performance at the Newport Jazz Festival 1964 is a must-listen for any jazz enthusiast. So grab a glass of your favourite tipple, sit back, and let the smooth sounds of Getz and his quartet transport you to a musical paradise. Cheers!
