I use to see Stan Getz's Cadillac parked around the corner from my Hotel in Detroit! In 1968 Had the initials S G on it. Everybody knew who it belonged to. But I never saw Him in person!

Although Charlie Barnet was a mediocre musician - EVERYONE wished to be in his band. He came from an ultra-wealthy family. We're talking - they owned Manhattan skyscrapers type wealthy. So Charlie Barnet paid his band more than anyone else did, and as a Christmas bonus - bought each of them a brand new Cadillac!

Woody Herman was so great a visionary band leader, his band survived for decades after the Swing Era had ended. Stan Getz takes the lead tenor solo on Caledonia, and is featured with trumpter Shorty Rogers on Northwest Passage. Not sure who second tenor soloist is - but Zoot Sims is third and after him short-lived baritone great Serge Chaloff. This recording really cranked loud (like all the absolute CRAP "music" of today all too often is) give a bit of a glimpse of the thrilling excitement of this era when big band swing began picking up the pace and elements of BeBop.

Once when Woody was playing a dance date (which he hated btw) a couple approached Woody and asked him "Mr. Herman, do you have any Jewish songs in your book?" Woody always quick to retort said "Yea, we've got a couple Al Cohn arrangemnets."

Stan Levey said that when he subbed for Dave Tough on Woody's band, it was a breeze to play. I think he meant that what Dave and Don Lamond had already played built up such a percussive bank account that the band could swing without a drummer. Neal Hefti's writing probably had something to do with it too. Now, the Kenton band was an entirely different story...

Just found a new Stan Getz at Audiosparx and it is free just type Stan getz into audiosparx search I think Advacados is just as good as this.

I was trying to eyeball the trumpets . Pete played lead and that doesn't look like him in the lead chair. It might be Stan Fishelson, maybe Bernie Glow to his right

@RootsinBrooklyn Yeah, I had to grit my teeth during Herman's vocal. It reminded me of a blackface minstrel show.

Shorty wasn't really all that short. He looks around 5'7". Mickey Rooney was 5'2".

Vocal is embarrasing.
