Stan Getz was one of the greatest stylists in jazz, and also among the best saxophonists in the history of the music. When he was recorded during his European exile, Getz was at one of the lowest points in his personal life, yet still at the summit of his art as a player: he was even referred to by his nickname, "The Sound", given to him when he became the most eminent figure in West Coast jazz. His partners here are some of Europe's best: French jazzmen Pierre Michelot and Martial Solal, and two great Francophiles, the Americans Jimmy Gourley and Kenny Clarke. The Live in Paris collection by Michel Brillie allows listeners to hear previously-unreleased recordings (made at concerts and private- or radio-sessions) by the great 20th stars in jazz, rock & roll and song. These "live" takes, and the artists' rapport with their audiences, gives these performances an additional soul and sensibility in counterpoint to the rigorous demands of studio recordings. Particular care was taken when restoring the sound of these tapes in order to meet modern standards while preserving the original colors of the period. ATTENTION: please remember that all Blu-Rays are Region A USA and all DVDs Region 1 USA and you will need a multi region Blu-Ray/DVD player to play them.
