The son of Ukrainian immigrants, Stanley Gayetzby (Getz) was born in Philadelphia but spent most of his childhood in the Bronx. During his adolescent years he quickly identified himself as a musical prodigy, taking up the harmonica at age 12 and then switching to the bass for six months before receiving his first alto saxophone at 13. In high school Stanley was talked into taking up the bassoon, and mastered the instrument so quickly that a year later he was selected to play in New York's All-City High School Orchestra, an ensemble that featured the area's best players in his age group. After a period of study with New York Philharmonic bassoonist Simon Kovar the promising young windsman was offered a scholarship to Julliard, but it was too late: the wicked urges of jazz had already taken hold of his innocent soul and Stanley passed up the offer in favor of a new tenor sax and a membership in the local musician's union. ~ NNDB.Com
"I guess that everything Getz ever recorded is first class stuff, so it is indeed difficult to rate any of this records with less than five stars. It's a pity that this one is unavailable on CD (I have a French CD release, as well as the original US LP edition) because I find it a must in Getz's discography, precisely because of the title tune "Another World", where we find him experimenting with the electronic delay provided by an Echoplex device. In the liner notes, Stan Getz tells us about how he was amazed with the possibilities opened by that this new electronic world. Unfortunately, no mater how much he enjoyed this experiment, it was the only one of this kind that he ever recorded, as far as I know. Only this theme would be reason enough to recommend this record, and this is why I find that this recording deserves a special place in Getz's discography. Besides, all the other tunes are simply Getz at his best. Just another five star Getz record...!"
"Some of the material is wonderful, flowing Getz doing what he did best, some isn't the Getz I'm used to. Great sounds but definitely "counter culture" influenced. Nice to hear the experimentation with electronics. "Pretty City", "Keep Dreaming" and "Another World" get a little spacey. Other tunes like "Sum Sum" and "Willow Weep For Me" are jazzy, cool Getz. Fine stuff altogether. Note, actually procured and listened to the original LP recording of this release."
