While we have this listed under Stan Getz's name, this disc is made up of sides of cut for the tiny Dawn label in the 1940s by four major West Coast (then up and coming) acts: Getz and his quartet, Paul Quinichette, Wardell Gray, and Zoot Sims. Hopefully that puts the tune selection in some kind of sensible order for serious jazz fans. To be truthful, all of this material has been licensed from, and was originally issued by, Biograph Records. Given that the source tapes were not preserved, the sound quality here is a bit dodgy because the material was taken form the most pristine sounding 78s. ~ Thom Jurek, All Music Guide
