Description
The CHET BAKER Quartet With RUSS FREEMAN
The Complete Pacific Jazz Studio Recordings
New & Sealed Audiophile Vinyl 4 Record Set In Deluxe Box
Record Label: Mosaic MR4-122
Limited Edition Box Set (7500 copies only). Four Records in deluxe box packaging. 14 page, 12x12 booklet with bio, credits and discography. If you have seen one of these Mosaic sets, you know the quality to expect.
Condition: Box, booklet and records are like new. Flawless. Vinyl looks to have never been played.
Review: This essential four-LP box set features trumpeter Chet Baker leading his own group during the 1953-1956 period (shortly after the breakup of the Gerry Mulligan Quartet) with pianist Russ Freeman, either Bob Whitlock, Carson Smith, Joe Mondragon, Jimmy Bond, or Leroy Vinnegar on bass, and Bobby White, Larry Bunker, Shelly Manne, Bob Neel, Peter Littman, or Lawrence Marable on drums. Baker is heard at his coolest (mostly before he became influenced by Miles Davis); some of the later selections also feature his first recorded vocals. Because the Mosaic box sets are limited editions, they should be acquired as soon as possible.
