Â Read MoreGetz was born in Philadelphia in 1927, but moved to the Bronx as a
youngster during the Depression as his family sought jobs. From the time he was
six, he began playing along with the radio on a harmonica. Anywhere he went, if
there were musical instruments around Getz would gravitate to them. His father
bought him a saxophone and clarinet when he was 13. In 1941, he was accepted
into the All City High School Orchestra of New York City. At age 16 in 1943, he
dropped out of school and became the ward of trombonist and bandleader Jack
Teagarden while playing in his band. This was followed by stints with Stan
Kenton (1944-1945), Jimmy Dorsey (1945), and Benny Goodman (1945-1946); he
soloed on a few records with Goodman. Getz, who had his recording debut as a
leader in July 1946 with four titles, became famous during his period with Woody
Hermans Second Herd (1947-1949), soloing (along with Zoot Sims, Herbie Steward,
and Serge Chaloff) on the original version of Four Brothers, and having his
sound well-featured on the ballad Early Autumn. After leaving Herman, Getz was
(with the exception of some tours with Jazz at the Philharmonic) a leader for
the rest of his life.

During the early 50s, he broke away from the Lester Young style to form his own
musical identity, and he was soon among the most popular of all jazzmen. He
discovered Horace Silver in 1950 and used him in his quartet for several months.
After touring Sweden in 1951, he formed an exciting quintet that co-featured
guitarist Jimmy Raney; their interplay on uptempo tunes and tonal blend on
ballads were quite memorable. Getzs playing helped Johnny Smith have a hit in
Moonlight in Vermont; during 1953-1954, Bob Brookmeyer made his group a quintet
and, despite some drug problems during the decade, Getz was a constant poll
winner. After spending 1958-1960 in Europe, the tenor man returned to the U.S.
and recorded his personal favorite, Focus, with arranger Eddie Sauters
Orchestra. Then, in February 1962, Getz helped usher in the bossa nova era by
recording Jazz Samba with Charlie Byrd; their rendition of Desafinado was a big
hit. During the next year, Getz made bossa nova-flavored albums with Gary
McFarlands big band, Luiz BonfÃ¡, and Laurindo Almeida, but it was
Getz/Gilberto (a collaboration with Antonio Carlos Jobim and JoÃ£o Gilberto)
that was his biggest seller, thanks in large part to The Girl from Ipanema
(featuring the vocals of Astrud and JoÃ£o Gilberto).

Music from the Sound Track of Mickey OneGetz could have spent the next decade
sticking to bossa nova, but instead he de-emphasized the music and chose to play
more challenging jazz. His regular group during this era was a piano-less
quartet with vibraphonist Gary Burton, he recorded with Bill Evans (1964),
played throughout the 1965 Eddie Sauter soundtrack for Mickey One, and made the
classic album Sweet Rain (1967) with Chick Corea. Although not all of Getzs
recordings from the 1966-1980 period are essential, he proved that he was not
afraid to take chances. Dynasty with organist Eddie Louiss (1971), Captain
Marvel with Chick Corea (1972), and The Peacocks with Jimmy Rowles (1975) are
high points. After utilizing pianist Joanne Brackeen in his 1977 quartet, Getz
explored some aspects of fusion with his next unit, which featured keyboardist
Andy Laverne. Getz even used an Echoplex on a couple of songs but, despite some
misfires, most of his dates with this unit are worthwhile. However, purists were
relieved when he signed with Concord in 1981 and started using a purely acoustic
backup trio on most dates.

ApasionadoIn 1987, Getz had a large tumor removed from behind his heart.
Subsequent tests revealed that he had liver cancer and cirrhosis, most likely
due to years of substance abuse. Undeterred, Getz embarked on a strict,
herbal-based diet hoping to treat the lymphoma. By fall 1988, MRI scans revealed
that the tumor had dramatically shrunk in size. Buoyed by the good news, Getz
remained active, touring with pianist Kenny Barron and recording the albums
Apasionado (1990) with Herb Alpert and You Gotta Pay the Band (1990) with
vocalist Abbey Lincoln. Sadly, Getzs cancer never fully abated and he died on
June 6, 1991 at age 64. His final recording, 1991s People Time, is a brilliant
duet set with Barron. While most of his catalog was remastered and reissued in
subsequent years, 2019 saw the release of Getz at the Gate from Verve, a
previously unissued recording from November 26, 1961 where he was backed by his
short-lived Boston Band with pianist Steve Kuhn, drummer Roy Haynes, and bassist
John Neves. ~ Scott Yanow
