Stan Getz Quartet Live in Dusseldorf 1960 180g LP (Vinyl)

180g Vinyl LP!

Live in Dusseldorf 1960 is an unreleased, original remastered concert recording on 180g vinyl!

Impresario Norman Granz had moved to Switzerland in 1959. He coordinated his "Jazz at the Philharmonic" tours from there, which at that time were very successful in Europe. In the following year, he even sent off two all-star casts under the slogan "Norman Granz's Jazz at the Philharmonic Presents Jazz Winners of 1960."

The first cast was made up of Ella Fitzgerald, Roy Eldridge, the Jimmy Giuffre Trio, and the Shelly Manne Quintet, while the second cast brought together the Miles Davis Quintet, the Oscar Peterson Trio, and the Stan Getz Quartet.

At Dusseldorf's Rheinhalle theater, Stan Getz was on stage with his own quartet. The playbill announced the saxophonist's Scandinavian band; however, prior to the tour he had dismissed several of its members and so the cast instead included Ray Brown and Ed Thigpen, two fellow Americans.

Approximately nine months after the concert in Dusseldorf, the expatriate made his comeback in the U.S. and shortly afterwards became world renowned not only among jazz enthusiasts but also with a much wider audience, thanks to the growing popularity of bossa nova music.
