Reviews :
"This previously unissued concert by the Getz quartet with Gary Burton divides into what are in effect two distinctly different performances. The first comprises the band’s dazzlingly accomplished instrumental work, whereas the second displays the best-selling Getz-Gilberto recording partnership in a live setting. The opening ‘On Green Dolphin Street’ prefigures everything the quartet is capable of. Getz’s solos ripple with invention, the vibes offer impressionistic backdrops, incisive countermelodies, sparkling solos, or even drop out entirely, while the partnership of Haynes on blistering form, and Israels (depping for Steve Swallow) are clearly enjoying just making everything swing as hard as possible. Haynes’ snare playing is a marvel. This instrumental set includes Burton’s knotty ‘Singing Song’, a haunting ‘Shadow of Your Smile’ and for good measure a 12-bar – namely Lou Donaldson’s ‘Blues Walk’. It’s impossible not to get caught up in the joie de vivre of this tight-knit band, and captured by its infectious rhythm. A Jobim medley closes the first set, and then we’re into bossa territory with Astrud singing ‘One Note Samba’. It takes a moment for the band to settle into her gentler format, but they soon do, and Getz manages to be both contained and extrovert at the same time, even maintaining the sound balance when the singer strays off mike. When she gets to ‘Corcovado’ everything is working as it should, but before the inevitable ‘Girl From Ipanema’, Gilberto shows her range with the quirky ‘Telephone Song’ and a compelling ‘It Might as Well Be Spring’, not to mention a brief vocal reprise of ‘Shadow of Your Smile’.
Altogether a thoroughly welcome discovery, beautifully mastered, and as welcome an addition to the newly-emerging Getz catalogue as the 1961 Village Gate concert that appeared two years ago." Jazz Wize Review by Alyn Shipton
"The Stan Getz Quartet of 1964-66 was a particularly sparky little outfit, featuring the young vibraphone virtuoso Gary Burton. By the time of this recording, a close partnership had grown between the two, often resulting in moments of radiant beauty. The Shadow of Your Smile, here, is one of these – delicate, almost fragile. At other times, such as the opening number, On Green Dolphin Street, there’s sheer rhythmic drive, and with Chuck Israels on bass and the great drummer Roy Haynes it’s more than impressive.
The second disc of this two-CD set mostly belongs to Astrud Gilberto, and it’s a surprise. She was now a star in her own right, with four albums to her credit, and hadn’t worked with Getz for more than two years. Her seven songs here are all ones they had recorded together, including the funny but tricky The Telephone Song, and finishing (of course) with The Girl from Ipanema. It’s all charmingly and efficiently done, and I couldn’t help noticing the quartet’s immaculate accompaniment. These jazz stars were professional musicians too, and they knew how to step back from the limelight while remaining unmistakably themselves." The Guardian.
