Love how you can hear the difference between their sounds in the lead. Getz has a really mellow and soft receding tone unlike Coltranes strong offensive sax sound.

How indelicate not to put Oscar`s name in the title of the post

Yeah, the Bird version is called "Hackensack", I think... There were so many of those interchangeable names... And yes, for sure, "I Got Rhythm" got so overused... poor song! :)

Bird used these changes but not under the name "Rifftide." The most frequently employed set of changes was for Gershwin's "I Got Rhythm" (e.g. Diz' Anthropology, Rollins' Oleo).

Good catch. It's not a blues. It's a 32-bar standard, AABA, based on Gershwin's "Lady Be Good" (his "I Got Rhythm" is the 2nd most popular set of changes after the blues). What's the most recorded tune in the history of recorded music? "Body and Soul." Hawkins is often cited as the primary reason, but there are stunning versions by Coltrane, Stitt, Rollins, and especially Dexter Gordon (the one on "The Panther.")
