I believe this might be Chets best recorded concert....and it was shortly before his death...At least he was at his best again... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IzpfZaZfsZg&feature=related
Lloyd, he did have that late comeback that allowed the best to come out. Here he with another famous jazz musician. HOW DEEP IS THE OCEAN-Chet Baker & Paul Desmond

Always remember, what Stan want's, Stan Getz! Chet Baker & Stan Getz - Sweden 1983 - Dear Old Stockholm
Some of the most smokin' Getz I ever heard...Dizzy, Stitt, Getz play "Be-Bop" from Musicians Only http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R6ozqa5O1yY&feature=related
Again, what Stan wants, Stan Getz. Perhaps his most famous output since it brought the Bossa Nova to full view of the jazz world! Stan Getz & Astrud Gilberto - Girl From Ipanema (Original Stereo) This song is sheer...Ahhhhhhhhhhh! YES! From the source page: One of the monumental jazz recordings of all time that now resides on the National Recording Registry, "Girl From Ipanema" defined bossa nova for a generation. The song was composed by Antonio Carlos Jobim with Portugese lyrics by Vinicius de Moraes and English lyrics by Norman Gimbel. Jazz saxophonist Stan Getz recorded this with Astrud and Joao Gilberto and it reached #5 on the pop charts in June of 1964.

Lloyd, that one by Sinatra and Jobim had this tag line in the YouTube page. Like slapping yourself with a silk scarf dipped in baby oil. Spectacular. Silky smooth. Superior. B-e-a-utiful. That is an exact description of that song. With that in mind... Insensatez - Tom Jobim
Jobim, Metheny, Joe Henderson, Charlie Haden, Al Foster: Desafinato...More silk scarves...lol http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D2GI8GuUHQA
