The record blends the beautiful and subtle ballad sounds of the 2004 release Eternal with the ecstatic contrasts of the critically-acclaimed Braggtown.
This is the first recording of the Branford Marsalis Quartet with an electrifying young drummer that joined the band three years ago and the results are a nimble and sparkling album, featuring ambitious original compositions by members of the band, a Thelonious Monk classic, and one standard dating to 1930.
~ liner notesĮnzo Randisi a Sicilian vibaphonist but plays piano at this session Among the many highlights are tunes not usually heard by Chet, like Blue n’ Boogie (played here in a medley with Buzzy, which was equally elusive in Baker’s discography) and, above all, a poignant version of I Can’t Get Started”, a ballad he only rarely recorded. Featured on piano, Enzo Randisi plays beautifully here in his only recordings with Chet, and one of his very few recordings on piano (his primary instrument was the vibraphone). This release presents a complete unissued live set by the great Chet Baker, recorded in a quartet format in Palermo, Italy, with local musicians. Recorded: Live at the Brass Club, Palermo, Italy, January 16, 1976.
