Stan Getz and Chet Baker, "Airegin, (Sonny Rollins)", Stockholm 1983

[@BuddycatAFK]

Stumbled across this in 2024. When baker is on he is so on. His solos sound like he spends hours planning them out. So fluid and melodic. Don’t get me wrong. Getz is one of my favorites, an absolute beast that respects the changes while moving in and out of melody in a way few others can only dream of but, bakers solo here is so melodic you almost forget what is underneath.

[@imad-jm9df]

this is good so good

[@jorgechavira7729]

That pair is amazing! Such wonderful music they made! We are fortunate having the chance to enjoy their recordings and watch them playin together in the videos.

[@garyoleyar]

speaking as a jazz musician myself, when i watch Stan Getz's left foot start tapping on the floor at 4:50 I AM IN AWE of the greatness. the notes are a given, his grasp of the time cannot be conveyed to someone who didn't see what i saw.

[@MJLeger-tz4so]

I was privileged to see Getz perform in Sausalito, years ago, I wish I had been able to see Chet perform, they are two very talented musicians, whose talent will never be forgotten.

[@charlesbarry6730]

Chet Baker was unfairly compared to Miles Davis. He had his own style .This was a very good set. There was a good blend of the horns.

[@milton112]

There is zero wrong with being compared to Miles. It is a complement of the highest order because very few were compared to Miles, Chet was an exception.

[@alainjames9556]

I think Chet was a better trumpet player than Miles - but I can't get with his singing.

[@otmq]

Alain James Chet played as he sang, and sang as he played. The two things are inseparable. His singing was exceptionally pure of pitch and tone...just like his playing. “I don’t know whether I’m a trumpet player who sings, or a singer who plays trumpet.”

[@eddiemperor]

Hahaha are you Kidding me? Miles by 83' had already re invented Music and done things that NO one had achieved as a whole, while these cats still played like in the 60's doing standards, w all respect to Baker and the ppl he worked with but Never compare Miles Davis to ANYONE. This is why the ''Jazz'' scene is done. Because of this purist melancholic nonsense. Miles never looked back he looked Miles Miles ahead!!

[@IndianOutlaw1870]

@@eddiemperor Miles was an innovator and experimenter, whereas Chet was content to remain within jazz borders. Both approaches are equally valid. Some of us prefer the older styles. You might prefer Mexican food, and I might prefer a plain burger.

[@rehabmd]

What used to make these encounters so exciting was what state they were in when they went onto the stand you never really knew what you were going to get and then when it all comes together and they look so cool about it you can't compare it to anything else.

Chet definitely held his own. He was second to none!

[@frankfrank7921]

Now I like Chet, but he was certainly second to Dizzy Gillespie, Miles Davis, Clifford Brown, Fats Navarro, Kenny Dorham, Lee Morgan, Booker Little, Art Farmer, Freddie Hubbard, Woody Shaw...just to name a few.

[@viceroy_raygun]

Frank Frank Bro, Chet's phrasing was incredible. He's a top improviser, no doubt about it.

[@GeoCoppens]

Chet was second to none, a class by himself!

[@frankfrank7921]

You do know that 'second to none' means the best or at least tied with the best. Do you honestly think he equals or exceeds the trumpet players that I mentioned in my earlier post?

[@GeoCoppens]

Listen to Chet Baker with Mulligan in1952 and 1953! You will get the point! Apart from early Chet Baker, my favorite trumpet players are Fats Navarro, Clifford Brown, Booker Little, Don Ferrara, Clarence (Gene) Shaw, Tony Fruscella... NO Freddie Hubbard or trumpeters like him!

[@myrancho2011]

Chet wasn't loaded on this particular cut. It's a just a challenging tempo for him. He's totally an ear player. He never quite got off the ground but he had really some nice moments. Stan was a tough bandleader and likely to vibe you if you weren't quite making it. McNeely wasn't nailing the pocket on his solo which is why he was probably doing what he was doing. He also gave the band a quick turnaround with his horn when they went to the head vamp on the trades - he wanted straight walk.

[@Nicholas-h7z]

Nice

[@getzfan1]

@rodiarachmaninoff I believe the pianist is Jim McNeely
