Review: Another vital part of saxophonist Getz’ career has emerged as a major historical find. This disc preserves the short-lived Stan Getz Quartet in the year before he broke out on a series of bossa nova collaborations. This never-before-released gig captures a set that’s both hot and cool. His familiar, lyrical tone was on full display at the Village Gate, but balanced with a muscularity that might surprise those who consider him solely in the “cool jazz” vein. He was clearly unafraid at the Gate to let the quartet pursue its collective boldest muse, with the rhythm section supporting him in a confident, often forceful manner.
