yfyun: If I were you, I'd worry more about whether or not you're a scumbag, and less about Mr. Getz's religious preferences.

Fair do's terryc. Although perfection is subjective.

Hey mega biz...nobody is perfect. Stan comes close, but he never listened to his own recordings because he was a perfectionist. From several reliable sources (former sidemen), it was generally accepted that, as formidable a player as he was, the only time he achieved perfection was when he was a perfect asshole. Others on this site who had actual dealings with Getz will confirm this. He was in a special Pantheon in this area: Miles, Buddy Rich, and Gerry Mulligan. Don't forget Benny Goodman.

Terryc for fuck's sake this is perfection. Why do you know better that Stan Getz?

2Godbdaglori. It's not just about jazz for me. Some music just pulls everything important together, doesn't matter the type of music, it's just about a togetherness with the musicians that create something totally perfect at those few moments and it's unique and will never be done the same again. Look how connected they are for these few minutes. It's a rare piece of perfection in a world out of step. Here's another one watch?v=_-NdCsZ1o8k
