Customer Reviews:
Stan highlights an old friend with lyric piano technique.......2001-04-09
As Stan Getz, the greatest Jazz saxophonist of all time, got older, (and sick with cancer), he decided he wanted to use his considerable popularity to highlight some of the talented but lesser known musicians who had accompanied him earlier in his career. The "Peacocks" album is another example of this. Dailey died a year or so after this long out-of-print recording hit the market.
So he produced this album which highlights Albert Dailey in an intimate session with out the usual drums and bass.
The result is pleasant and listenable. Dailey is quoted as saying he "doesn't like saxophone". Stan is dumbfounded. "Not even Charlie Parker or Coltrane?" he asks.
Dailey His two unaccompanied solo's on the standards "Lover Man" and "Around Midnight" are quite innovative and show a great lyric technique.
Recording quality is good, you can hear the interior lines without the bass and drums. A minor quibble, the sax is close and the piano is a bit too distant. This is worth having and representative of the bulk of Stan Getz's albums, hence my 3 star review, by my tough grading system.
