Stan Getz Plays is an album by jazz saxophonist Stan Getz, recorded in 1952 released on the Norgran label in 1955. [2] [3] The album features tracks that were previously released on two 10-inch LPs on Clef Records (MGC 137 and MGC 143). [4]
The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow stated: "Tenor saxophonist Stan Getz is in excellent form playing with one of his finest groups... Although the music does not quite reach the excitement level of the Getz-Raney Storyville session, this music (particularly the ballads) really shows off the tenor's appealing tone." [5]
