JAZZ Getz for Lovers by Stan Getz (CD, Jan-2002, Verve) (SAME DAY SHIPPING)

Description: Perhaps it is music's resemblance to spirItthat lets it express love so powerfully.Composers and performers even speak of the power of music to generate color. Like Lester Young, his musical mentor and godfather, Stan Getz not only told love stories when he soloed; he painted them in sound. With immeasurable pleasure, you can close your eyes to ballads he plays and hear pictures of airy, sunny beaches or quiet mountain or country settings or foggy mornings by some exotic bay, or the plush possibilities for romance to bloom through smoke across a crowded lounge.
