In New York 
Chet Baker
A session of East Coast bebop, a departure from Chet Baker's West Coast sound. Chet plays along side hard-bop legends such as Johnny Griffin. In the Fifties, Chet Baker always seemed to want to prove he was just as good as the East Coast boppers. He makes a pretty good case here.
