5 out of 5 stars One of the most beautiful recording by Stan Getz.......2007-01-09

I ordered this CD for my father for xmas. He heard this record on LP in the sixties, now he realized that it was re-released on CD. He said that this is the Getz-Brookmeyer quintet's best record ever. Soon after this Stan moved to the well-known bossa-novas, which are also unforgettable and five stars *****!

3 out of 5 stars Getz and Brookmeyer, part two.......2005-07-07

Listening to Stan Getz works, one is amazed at the number of major future talents who he hired as backup musicians, Gary Burton, Al Haig, Kenny Barron, to name a few. The only musician to turn up more future talents than Getz was Miles Davis. Despite marvellous technique, it was Stan in the spotlight, he tended to let them have a short solo and paid them musical minimum wage.

The exception was Bob Brookmeyer and his valve trombone who was so talented Getz treated him as an equal and played duets with him, at the same time, rather than giving him space for a short solo. Getz valued him so much he even told a magazine Brookmeyer had join his band. Brookmeyer objected. Getz retreated and said it was wishful thinking.

They got together on and off for years. Getz even changed mouthpieces when playing with Brookmeyer so his sax would have a similar tymbre to Brookmeyer's trombone.

I like their effort "Jazz at the Shrine". This is more complex duet play, fast, light, bebop, dry, in a similar vein to Shrine.

4 out of 5 stars Real "smooth" jazz.......2002-11-02

Back then they called it "cool", but this is real jazz played smoothly. Mellow mood music with sensitive interplay between the two principal performers, backed by a fine rhythm section (pianist Steve Kuhn, bassist John Neves and drummer Roy Haynes).
