Live At Gaetano's 
Chet Baker

This 1966 Pueblo concert can be found on several labels. Baker and Urso sound strong, and it somewhat makes up for the extremely poor recording quality. It's hard to believe this concert was recorded the same year as all of those terrible Mariachi Band and Carmel Strings albums. This is probably Baker's last great recording until his 1974 comeback. It's also our last opportunity to hear that beautiful voice before it reappeared in the 1970's scarred by cigarettes and drugs.
