Inglewood Jam
Charlie Parker & Chet Baker
Interesting mostly for it's historical significance. The recording quality is poor, and Chet's playing is fair. The 22 year old trumpet player tries to keep up with the veteran saxophonist, and he sometimes come close. This is certainly not the lyrical Chet Baker we will hear in years to come.
