I worked in the woodwind industry years ago and had the privilege of attending Getz' memorial service at Herb Alperts A & M Studios in the Charlie Chaplin Sound Stage and this was one of the pieces played. Everyone was in tears including me. No words then or now. I'll always treasure the experience. Years later I found out my mother-in-law lived next door to the Getz family in Queens, and told me about all the special concerts the local school had because of him. Another neighbor complained about young Stan practicing but was shutdown by Sean's mother who shouted other son - "Hey Stanley! Play louder!!" Small world and what a privilege to have lived in such an orbit.
@JazzMaestra
One of the best version's of Billy Strayhorn's "Blood Count."
@Joshualbm
This is one of the greatest examples of why it is so important to understand what the song is about. Learning the lyric and embodying its deeper meaning will always produce a superior performance. Bravo Stan.
@stefanofratta7648
This song has no lyric. Some lyrics were added by Elvis Costello but several years after this recording - and the passing of the great Stan Getz himself, for what matters -
The song is about the clinical analysis that Strayhorn was dealing with in the final time of his life.

@@stefanofratta7648 This is why I really dislike public commenting and do it less and less. Some asshole eventually comes along to try and invalidate what is otherwise a preetty accurate statement. Asshole. I know very well what this song is about, who wrote it etc. Don't be so condescending. Anyhow, M.B. Stillman is credited with a lyric back in the 80s for Mark Murphy's vocal performance here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nNUafodIPWE But the main point that Stan knew what this song was about, lyric or not. If you don't understand how an artist comes to embody a piece of work, well than you don't realize how great performances come about. Many of the great instrumentalists studied the lyrics, if available, to inform the delivery of their performing. Otherwise, it's just a song with no meaning and becomes an exercise in technical expression.

@@Joshualbm Since you seem unable to tolerate opinions other than your own, you would have done better not to comment at all. But above all your answer shows an intolerance and an unjustifiable hatred, if not with a state of confusion that you cannot blame any "asshole" for, but for which I feel sorry for you.
If your attitude is so rude and unappropriate you better avoid answering.
And, sorry again, your statement is not accurate, in no possible way.
Lyrics and music are part of a song, and the main reason, even if not the only, to remember and/or learn the lyrics for an instrumental soloist is to remember the melodic line note for note, not to "inform the delivery of their performing".
As a matter of fact, several different (and sometime HUGELY different) lyrics have been added many times to an already existent instrumental jazz tune. And the instrumental jazz covering of one instrumental jazz original is based on the MUSIC itself. Music that have inside the meaning of the art form, that have no need of a text added and to relate whit it to reach and touch the soul of the listener, and that is not limited to an "exercise in technical expression".
It's art.

@@stefanofratta7648 I welcome and can tolerate interesting, well informed and productive comments, But yours never met any of those requirements. Instead, you Make a bunch of inaccurate, pedantic comments. That Stan knew very well what the song was about originally is not even worth disputing. Of course he did. And since Stan had been battling liver cancer at that late point in his life, well the power is clearly evident in his playing. Jazz horn players often emulate the human voice and many jazz vocalists approach their voices like a horn. This is basic stuff. But so also have many of the great instrumentalist immersed themselves in the meaning of a song, either by suggestion in the title or the lyric in order to express their life's experience into the music. If you don't understand this, you really don't understand this music or art-form, at least at this level. Coleman Hawkins, Lester Young, Johnny Hodges, Sonny Rollins, Dexter Gordon, Miles Davis, would all laugh at your comments.
