About

Getz assembled this band to kill time while shooting a film in Los Angeles in 1955. Jazz was in a stylistic battle between coastal scenes; the title of this album mocks that notion, the performances eschewing the reputation of West Coast jazz as placid and polite. Getz applies sensual cool to “East of the Sun (And West of the Moon),” but his blowing with trumpeter Conte Candoli on Miles Davis’ “Four” or Dizzy Gillespie’s “Night in Tunisia” is marked by charged interplay and fiery solos.
