About this item

A superb 1988 quartet studio performance recorded just three months before Chet's death. Originally issued on the Norwegian label Hot Club Records and long out of print, this is the first time that this historic session appears worldwide on vinyl, including three alternate takes that were absent from the initial release.

Includes 12-page LP size booklet with previously unpublished photos from the actual sessions, plus specially prepared essays by the original producer Jon Larsen and music writer Brian Morton.

Chet Baker: trumpet (also vocal on 'How High The Moon)
Philip Catherine: guitar
Egil Kapstad: piano
Terje Venaas: bass

Studio Sysmo, Paris, February 17 & 18, 1988.
