Chet Baker Quartet – Chet Baker in Paris, Vol 1
Step into the world of Parisian jazz with Chet Baker in Paris, Vol 1, recorded at the legendary Studio Pathé-Magellan in October 1955. This is the first of three recordings Chet Baker made for the Barclay label, capturing a significant moment in his European career. The album features eight compositions by Bob Zieff, which were previously recorded by Dick Wetmore but given new life in this session with Chet's unmistakable trumpet sound. Despite not having played these compositions in front of an audience before, Baker delivers an intricate performance alongside pianist Dick Twardzik, bassist Jimmy Bond, and drummer Peter Littman.

Pressed in Germany by Optimal using the Pallas Metal Mothers, the album is beautifully packaged as a facsimile reissue with original photos by Jean-Pierre Leloir.
