Chet Baker: Live at Ronnie Scott's

Recorded live in the cool and intimate atmosphere of London's legendary Ronnie Scott's Jazz Club, Chet Baker's performance here is both fragile and passionate. Baker is joined by Van Morrison and reunited with Elvis Costello, with whom he recorded 'Shipbuilding', at Ronnie Scott's intimate English club. As one of the most important jazz trumpeters, the style he helped invent had a defining effect on West coast jazz. Chet recalls winning a spot with Charlie Parker's band at the tender age of 22, but humbles himself by confessing to a lifelong addiction to drugs. Jazz fans will be breathless when they hear his thrilling version of the standard 'Love For Sale' and more.
