JAZZ IN PARIS, VOL. 53:  CHET BAKER QUARTET PLAYS STANDARDS   -   Chet Baker

YEAR:  1955
LABEL:  Sunnyside/Emarcy
TRACK LISTING:  Summertime,  You Go To My Head,  Tenderly,  Lover Man,  There's A Small Hotel,  Autumn In New York,  These Foolish Things,  I'll Remember April
IMPRESSIONS:  A justly famous series of live performances by Chet Baker's Quartet in Paris originally released in 3 volumes, we now find here on this re-released cd.  Chet and his quartet are pretty sublime on this performance of standard ballads.  A late night album or something for a grey day, this album would even be perfect on a sunny summer afternoon.  The complete original Emarcy CHET IN PARIS recordings have also since been reissued on cd and Volume 2 contains everything here as well as other equally beautiful tracks not included here; but this is the cd that I had originally so this is the one I'm posting about.      
MY FAVOURITE TRACKS:  All of 'em.
FACT SHEET:  JAZZ IN PARIS VOL. 53:  CHET BAKER QUARTET PLAYS STANDARDS is a newer cd version of performances culled from the Barclay series of CHET IN PARIS volumes originally released on Emarcy.
