Baker, Chet

Broken Wing

Recorded in Paris in December 1978, 'Broken Wing' is beautiful proof that Baker's playing remained undiminished in the face of ongoing personal challenges. There is wonderful musical chemistry between Baker and his ensemble members throughout this excellent and rare LP, namely pianist Phil Markowitz, bassist Jean-François Jenny-Clark and drummer Jeff Brillinger, yielding exceptional versions of Richie Beirach's title track and Wayne Shorter's 'Black Eyes,' as well as Baker's 'Blue Gilles'; he's on top form on the trumpet and tackles the vocal of 'Oh You Crazy Moon' with gracefulness. Another great offering from Chet!
