Review by Scott Yanow
Tenor saxophonist
Stan Getz found a perfect accompanist in pianist
Kenny Barron, who would regularly play in his group for his last five years. This out-of-print Black Hawk LP finds the pair, along with bassist
George Mraz and drummer
Victor Lewis, performing two standards and four more recent pieces, including two ("Dreams" and "Voyage") by
Barron. The music is difficult to classify (modern bop?) but relatively easy to understand;
Getz never coasts.
