Artist : CHET BAKER
Title : Chet Baker and his Quintet with Bobby Jaspar.
Orig issued in 1956 on Barclay label - Barclay 84042 .
This session was recorded at Studio Pathe-Magellan in Paris, between October, 25th, 1955 and February, 10th, 1956. This record is the third and last record for the Barclay label.
In response to an offer to Nicole Barclay, Chet Baker arrived in Paris in early September 1955. The 22 - or maybe 23 - he signed a contract for seven records ...(later replaced by 3). When Chet entered the studio Pathe-Magellan October, 25th, 1955 ,just one member of the original trio was always present: the pianist Dick Twardzik died of an overdose and drummer Peter Littman had gone home. Only Jimmy Bond on bass, was still there. Three titles have been arranged by the pen of Pierre Michelot - 'Chet', 'Dinah' - and the Christian Knight 'Vline’ . Chet so loved these arrangements that he decided to re-record them later in Los Angeles. November, 28th, 1955, Chet returned in the same studio, this time with piano Raymond Fol, Benoit Quersin on bass and Jean-Louis Viale on drums. Three titles were recorded : ' Alone Together ' and ' Exitus ' composed by Phil Urso and ' Once In a While’.
The day after Christmas , on December, 26th, there is an opportunity to Chet Baker and Bobby Jaspar to sustain a partnership that was established at the Club Saint-Germain since the beginning of the month. That day, in the All Stars, Maurice Vander replaces Rene Urtreger on piano. Two titles were recorded : 'Chekeetah' and 'How About You' . Chet Baker and Bobby Jaspar are in total harmony . It is regrettable that such a winning team was never reassembled .
Finally, February 10th, 1956, Chet recorded with a quintet 'Anticipated blues' and 'Tasty Pudding' with Jean -Louis Chautemps , Francy Boland, Edgar de Haas and Charles Saudrais .

ABOUT SAM RECORDS:
In the tradition of labels wholly devoted to vinyl re-pressing, Sam Records puts out a product of top-notch musical and visual quality.
While so many labels confine themselves to re-mastering digital versions (read: CDs) and reproducing the original artwork by simply scanning the cover, Sam Records uses only master tapes and re-creates record covers using the original photographs, paintings and/or drawings. That generally involves some painstaking detective work, so it’s a job for conscientious professionals, not corner-cutting amateurs.
Our re-pressings pay tribute to the people – the musicians, producers, labels, photographers, graphic artists and sound engineers – who created the original recordings that have become enduring legends of 1950s and ’60s jazz in France.
After my 2006 edition of the famous album Peace Treaty, recorded by saxophonist Nathan Davis in Paris in 1965 on the label SFP, Sam Records has now come out with a series of new editions, available exclusively on facsimile vinyl records:
· Re-mastered from the original master tapes.
· Limited édition 180 gr vinyl pressed by Pallas in Germany.
· Facsimile reissue using the original photo from Jean-Pierre Leloir.
· Double insert using an original photo by JP Leloir.
· Each record has been visually checked to prevent defects.
