It was released in January 1968 and includes performances recorded between 1949 and 1950. The album features both instrumental and vocal pieces. Whilst the first eight pieces had been available on LP before, tracks 9–12 were unissued at the time of the album's release and don't feature Getz playing. *Prezervation* also includes the rarities "Stardust" and "Goodnight My Love", whose masters had been thought lost until being rediscovered by [Don Schlitten](/source/Don_Schlitten) shortly before the album's release.[3] ## Track listing 1.
