內容簡介
內容簡介 "Listening again to these sides, one is struck at once by how carefully constructed his music still was. Admittedly, he had the best band money could buy and these are great ensemble recordings, not just star vehicles. Bill Evans was approaching the peak of his powers and would shortly enter a studio with Miles Davis to make what some regard as the finest jazz album ever recorded. The others were no studio make-weights, either.! - Penguin Jazz to Jazz "It is fitting that the title of this album, sometimes presented under the simple name of Chet, emphasizes the singular and refined playing of the trumpeter. When it appeared in 1959, Chet Baker’s career was already well underway, and his reputation was firmly established. - Jazz MagazinePERSONNEL:Chet Baker - trumpetBill Evans - pianoHerbie Mann - flutePepper Adams - baritone saxKenny Burrell - guitar (on A3 & B2 only)Paul Chambers - bassConney Kay - drums (on A1-A3 & B1-B3)Philly Joe Jones - drums (on A4 & B4-B5)New York, December 30, 1958 (A1-A3, B1-B3) & January 19, 1959 (A4 & B4-B5).(*) BONUS TRACKS (A5 & B6):Chet Baker (tp); Bill Evans (p); Zoot Sims (ts); Herbie Mann (fl) (on B6 only)Pepper Adams (bs) (on B6 only);Earl May (b); Clifford Jarvis (d)New York, July 22, 1959.)TRACKS:SIDE AA1 ALONE TOGETHERA2 HOW HIGH THE MOONA3 IT NEVER ENTERED MY MINDA4 ‘TIS AUTUMNA5 I TALK TO THE TREES (*)SIDE BB1 IF YOU COULD SEE ME NOWB2 SEPTEMBER SONGB3 YOU’D BE SO NICE TO COME HOME TOB4 TIME ON MY HANDSB5 YOU AND THE NIGHT AND THE MUSICB6 THANK HEAVEN FOR LITTLE GIRLS (*)"
