Burnin' At Backstreet
Chet Baker Quartet
Appropriately
titled, as Chet was hot that night. The recording quality is average,
you hear many hoots and hollers from the enthusiastic crowd, Chet's
microphone doesn't work on the last tune, and he has to abandon his
vocals mid-song, and the band can be heard bickering through a few
tunes. But when Chet plays......
Rarely have you heard him play with
such fire and intensity. He blows loud, high and fast. The excitement of
these performances overcome any flaws this recording may have.
