| Artist/Band: |  | Chet Baker | | Name: |  | My Favorite Songs - The Last Great Concert Vol. 1 [SHM-CD] | | Cat No.: |  | GQCP-59038 | | Performed by: |  | Chet Baker (trumpet,vocal) NDR Big Band Radio Orchestra Hannover
| | Release Date: |  | 08/20/2008 | | Description: |  | My Favorite Songs contains the first half of Chet Baker's last concert, recorded in Germany merely two weeks before his untimely and tragic death. The trumpet legend's last recording may well be his greatest. For this ambitious concert, a quintet was backed by an 18-piece big band AND a 43-piece symphony orchestra.
The large production never overwhelmed the lyricism of Baker's trumpet, thanks to the sensitive, effective yet understated arrangements. What you find here is profound beauty and lifetime of music.
This gorgeous recording is now reissued by Universal Japan on a brand-new SHM-CD format that offers superior sound and is compatible with all regular CD players. Together with the Volume 2, this concert CD is a must-own item for fans of Chet Baker!
Recorded in concert on April 28, 1988 at the Funkhaus Hannover, Germany. Originally released by Enja Records in 1988. This Japanese, limited SHM-CD edition was released by Universal Japan on August 20, 2008. | | Eastwind Import Price: |  |
