5.0 out of 5 stars A must have for any Jazz collection., January 1, 2000

This review is from: Compact Jazz (Audio CD)

This is a great album that both jazz fans and not so jazz fans can appreciate. The smooth sax of Stan Getz ranges from soothing on the opening track, to stacatto and aggressive later on, yet keeping his signature sound throughout. There are a few vocal tracks which are great as well. This album has a few live tracks on it, but is recorded excellently throughout. Even some of my friends which aren't into Jazz comment on the great music when I pop it in. One of my favorites CD's when I'm in a mellow mood and just want some good background music.

You cannot miss this, you'll find Getz at his best. Even after repeated listening every time I find something new. I'm particularly fond of this cd as it made me discover Getz..

4.0 out of 5 stars I Return Again and Again, January 14, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Compact Jazz (Audio CD)

I've listened to this CD at least 200 times. It's one of those that can play in the background or one that I sit and consciously listen to--and each time I hear some little twist and tweak I hadn't heard before.

I have quite a few Getz CDs but this one is probably my favorite.
