The Stockholm Concert
Quintessence Vol 1 & 2
The Stan Getz Quartet With Chet Baker
These recordings are from the ill-fated Baker/Getz tour of 1983. The tour was cut short due the fact that the two just couldn't get along. That is a shame, as they really sounded great together. There was a video made of one of the Swedish dates from this tour. It is interesting to watch the way they interact (or more exactly, don't interact) with each other on stage. The tension was apparent.

The 3 CD Stockholm Concert is from 2 concerts on 2/18/83 and was also paired down to a single CD release called Line for Lyons (Sonet SNTF 899).
