Ballads For Two
Chet Baker / Wolfgang Lackerschmid
The first of three recordings with the young vibraphonist. The better cuts (#2,4,6) can be found on Why Shouldn't You Cry, along with the best of the other 2 dates. Chet sounds tired in most of the other cuts. Chet and "Lacky" re-recorded Why Shouldn't You Cry in 1987 and improved on it greatly.
