Brooks cut four wonderful sides for Blue Note during the '60s which didn't see the light of day for 35 years. The Lester Young influenced Getz had a broader career starting as one of the four brothers playing sax with Woody Herman. His live session for Roost with Jimmy Raney at Storyville from 1951 is wonderful cool jazz. His other Roost sessions of that period have Al Haig who played with the boppers or Horace Silver on piano. His bossa nova stuff is mostly excellent. Outstanding are Jazz Samba with guitarist Charlie Byrd and the Getz and Gilbertos.I second the Booker Ervin recommendation. You'd also like Little Johnny Cole's "Little Johnny C", and anything with Booker Little.
