He had a long and complicated relationship with Italy, a country where he was incarcerated for drug offensives, but also adored by a myriad of unconditional Italian fans, musicians, and producers who idolised him and recorded him extensively at every opportunity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe musicians accompanying Chet Baker on Septet \u0026amp; Quartet were among the very best of the Italian jazz scene of the time - Glauco Masetti on alto sax, Gianni Basso on tenor sax, Renato Sellani on piano, Franco Cerri on double bass, together with the Italian-American Gene Victory on drums. The arrangements were entrusted to Giulio Libano , who provided ample space for all to solo. Chet Baker is undoubtedly the protagonist, but a lot of freedom of expression is granted to his fellow adventurers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFeaturing a programme of five jazz standards such as 'Tune Up' by Miles Davis, 'Pent-Up House' by Sonny Rollins, along with four popular standards including the added closing bonus track 'My Funny Valentine' with Chet Baker providing the vocal on an otherwise all instrumental LP.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WAXTIME","offers":[{"title":"LP 180g Vinyl","offer_id":54784737050947,"sku":"RPT-31064","price":18.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0821\/1601\/8499\/files\/8436028697113_jpg_ebe9dcfa-7985-401b-b1a9-05f9c38c7507.png?v=1788603389","url":"https:\/\/www.recordplant.co.uk\/products\/chet-baker-sextet-and-quartet-milan","provider":"Record Plant","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
