Getz Gilberto 76

Resonance Records has recently tapped the archives of the fondly-remembered San Francisco jazz spot Keystone Korner for two valuable additions on compact disc and vinyl to the Stan Getz discography.  The late tenor saxophone legend's appearances at the nightspot between May 11 and 16, 1976 have been culled to create two new albums.  Moments in Time preserves nine performances from Getz's core sets, while its companion is even more special.  Getz/Gilberto '76 is a new entry to the small but
