Originally released in 1971, DYNASTY is a double-CD that finds Stan Getz really stretching out in a quartet setting. Though highly melodic and restrained in the usual Getz style, these tunes feature plenty of advanced, post-bop playing and challenging improvisation. Flanked by drummer Bernard Lubat, guitarist Ray Thomas, and organist Eddie Louiss, Getz charges and glides through a number of originals penned by the band members plus the classics "Invitation" and "I Remember Clifford."

Tenor saxophonist Stan Getz possessed a full, luxuriant tone and a highly melodic improvisational sense. Though he produced consistently rewarding music for the duration of his near 50-year career, he achieved the greatest success in the early '60s when he led the American part of the bossa nova explosion. Indeed, this brilliant fusion of jazz and Brazilian rhythms yielded the tune, "The Girl From Ipanema," which became one of the biggest selling jazz records in history.
