Description

Long before the success of his Grammy winner, “The Girl from Ipanema,” Stan Getz was a fixture among jazz greats, having played in the Stan Kenton, Benny Goodman, and Woody Herman big bands. His long career in jazz is amazing, given his tumultuous life. Getz struggled with heroin addiction and alcoholism, which led him into trouble with the law and with his family and friends. Maggin chronicles a forty-nine-year career of enduring artistic success in the midst of a troubled life.
