Empty Shells: The Complete Cannes Concert [Live]

Editorial Reviews
Album Description
Recorded in 1980 in Cannes, this live recording is one of the rare testimonies left behind by this particular Stan Getz line-up, featuring the excellent Chuck Loeballa (guitar), Andy La Verne (piano), Victor Jones (drums) & Brian Bromberg. The mix of acoustic & electric instruments, found here predates the fusion phenomenon that would soon explode in jazz. Featuring a mix of Loeb & La Verne originals & jazz standards like 'Autumn Leaves' (showcase for all soloists) & W. Shorter's 'Lady Day', the sweet ballad dedicated to Billie Holiday. Grand finale on the blues notes of Charlie Parker in 'Billie's Bounce', which features numerous guests like Paul Horn on flute & Sugar Blue on blues harmonica. Miniature gatefold LP sleeve. Universe/Comet. 2003.
