Violonist Dick Wetmore had just recorded the eight tunes, and Bob Zieff had had just enough time to revise the arrangements. Chet neither a champion sight-reader nor a big fan of rehearsals, hadn't yet played them in front of an audience. From that first French session only the reel referred to as a \"production tape\" remains.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis \"complete Bob Zieff\" gives an impression of unity that well matches the suite concept intended by the composer; as for \"The Girl From Greenland,\" its role comes as a codicil. The record of Chet's quartet with Twardzik has now appeared in Ben Ratliff's book \"Jazz, a Critic's Guide to The 100 Most Important Recordings\" (\u003cem\u003eThe New York Times\u003c\/em\u003e Essential Library); it's a fitting mention for an album that was long unrecognized in the the United States.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CHET BAKER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50516767637748,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0395\/2040\/3623\/files\/ASAM_01__79726__12302011045425-8740.jpg?v=1790060850","url":"https:\/\/grevillerecords.com.au\/products\/chet-baker-quartet-live-in-paris-vol-1-vinyl","provider":"GrevilleRecords","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
