A timeless treasure from the legendary trumpeter’s second visit to Japan will be released for RSD 2026 on deep-blue vinyl!! (Vol.1). In 1986, jazz icon Chet Baker made his miraculous debut in Japan, promising fans, “Let’s meet again soon.” Just one year later, he kept that promise—returning in 1987 for a series of unforgettable performances. This album captures the magic of the first set from his June 6th live show in Fukui, delivering the raw intimacy and lyrical brilliance that only Chet could conjure.
