This session was recorded in 1958 in Chicago and features Getz, the saxophonist highly influenced by Lester Young and Chet Baker,the trumpet player considered a Miles Davis devotee...both are quality known men and rumour has it they have been at odds with one another so perhaps what comes as a surprise is their pairing on this CD (only on 1/2 of the cuts).
The music is also found on a USA release so don't buy this pricey import...The USA Verve release has great sound and the tracks are standard fare..I'll Remember April,Autumn In New York/Embraceable You/What's New(medley),Jordu and Cherokee(Half Breed Apache)...you won't be disappointed and it has it's fine moments with Getz's longer notes and Baker's sparser delivery...It runs over 50 minutes and is a worthy collection fusing West and East in Chicago minus the Blues but nonetheless nice music and a worthy CD to have.
If the tracks were played more together with 2 men it would have been a sure 5 star..they are accompanied by piano,drums and bass...
