Chet Baker Strings (mono)

Description

Originally released in 1953, Chet Baker & Strings finds a young Chet in a quintet setting that includes Zoot Sims, Bud Shank, Joe Mondragon and Shelly Manne. The proceedings are then flushed out beautifully here by a nine-piece string section with various arrangements from Johnny Mandel, Marty Paich, Shorty Rogers and Jack Montrose. This 180g vinyl reissue of Chet Baker & Strings includes three bonus tracks not found on the original release.
