Great musician, but what an asshole: https://www.independent.co.uk/...

“It was at this point that Getz called Creed’s office. Betsy, Creed’s
secretary, took the call. Creed was out of the office. When he returned
and she told him Stan was anxious to talk with him, Creed thought Stan
must be calling to see that Astrud got some share of the royalties. On
the contrary, he was calling to make sure that she got nothing.”

Truly hot stuff and thanks for going back to this world.  But if you're going to do Stan Getz and a samba, I want to hear some Vince Guaraldi.  Linus and Lucy, maybe, or his astounding cover of the Beatles "I'm a Loser."

Long ago and far away, but music sure can do that to me.

When I was a kid my step-dad had an LP called Jerry Mulligan meets Stan Getz that I would listen to when he was out of town with the railroad. I have loved Jazz ever since. I love RP!

It's not jazz, it's Bossa Nova.  And you just feel it.  Rate it according to how your skin reacts.

Back in the day they called Getz “The Sound”. And for good reason in my opinion.

I'm also hearing the hiss of the reed in the sax....this track, with all it's hisses, is pure bliss....9+....Long Live RP!!

That hiss is usually called a "spitty" sound.  It's usually a build-up of moisture (saliva and condensation) around the reed.  From what I understand it occurs more frequently for players when they play in sub-tones, like Getz often did.  It seems to be a bane for most sax players but it almost seems like a lot of the jazz players of Getz's era weren't bothered by it, maybe for its "raw" or "real" sound.

Beautiful Stan Gets version!  This composition is from Tom Jobim. A fantastic Brazilian musician!
I suggest that RP should play more Brazilian music. And there is much more beautiful music in Brazil other than "Bossa Nova".

I think I'm hearing brushes played on drum heads, not hissing.
Too rhythmic and consistent to be hissing to me.

Great musicians I'm sure but this is one of those that leaves me cold, well more than cold really.  Although as I write this the change in tempo gets better, that bossa nova thing just really grates, like a pre programmed keyboard.  But hey, that's what's great about RP, if I'd liked it it would have been a new discovery and that would be good, as it is I can add it to my very small list of RP plays that I really dislike. 

Ah, Joe Strummer, balance is restored...
