Don't tell Oscar Peterson that providing support on Duke Ellington's classic tune at this session didn't mean a thing. "Diz really wanted a piece of Getz bad that day," Peterson recalls. "It was a kick to see them go after each other. . . . Dizzy was out for blood. He wanted to take advantage of somebody, and I decided it wasn't going to be me."
Yet at this great convocation, Dizzy Gillespie's fire and Stan Getz's ice take in a lot of territory, including a great Afro-Cuban melody, "Siboney" - on which Diz heats things up in Part 1 and then Getz cools them off in Part 2.
Dizzy Gillespie was at the peak of his powers throughout the '50s, still the pacesetter among trumpeters. This double CD matches Dizzy with Stan Getz, the Oscar Peterson Trio and drummer Max Roach. Getz, although identified with the "cool" school, thrived on competition and is both relaxed and combative on the up-tempo explorations of "It Don't Mean a Thing" and "Impromptu." [The 2001 remastered edition compiles "Siboney, Pts. 1 & 2" into one complete track.]
