Flamingo Spotting

The two Getz–Gullin duets from 1951, Flamingo and Don't Get Scared, keep reappearing. The other day I saw a 10 CD box from Membran (232755) titled Stan Getz: Master of the Sax. It also includes the six quartet tunes Getz recorded the day before and eight tunes recorded in Stockholm in December 1955. All with Bengt Hallberg. Plus Getz' sessions with Silver, Brookmeyer, Hampton, JJ Johnson, Gillespie, Oscar P and Mulligan.
