Originally released in 1967, the compilation album
Prezervation brings together tracks that jazz saxophonist
Stan Getz recorded in 1949 and 1950. Backing
Getz here is pianist
Al Haig, who gets second billing, as well as guitarist/vocalist
Jimmy Raney, bassist
Tommy Potter, drummer
Roy Haynes, and others. The album is a superb example of early West Coast jazz and a must-have collection for
Getz aficionados. ~ Matt Collar
