Thinks happen: Music Monday - Stan Getz Quintet

Things are sort of dull around the Music Monday composing room, so for the next few weeks the cracked editorial staff has decided on a new feature for the day:

The artwork of David Stone Martin on record covers.

One exciting work of art (called Illustration by some) will be presented here each week until they run out. Each is a scan from the editor's personal library and the original copyrights apply.

They are presented here for admiration and educational purposes only.

After two successful albums from Norman Granz recording, the best thing for Stan Getz and the Quintet to do was to record a third album. This one is better known than the first two; at least the cover art appears more often.

The artwork on volume three was, of course: David Stone Martin

The personnel on these recordings:

Stan Getz, Tenor Sax
John Williams, Piano
Bob Brookmeyer, Valve Trombone
Teddy Kotick, Bass
Frank Isola, Drums

The recordings on this disk are
