Chet Baker - In Paris D1
Recorded October 11, 14 & 25, 1955
Studio Pathe-Magellan, Paris
Emarcy 837474-2

""Baker sailed for Europe in September 1955, staying till the following April. His quartet for the tour started out featuring pianist Richard Twardzik, bassist Jimmy Bond and drummer Peter Littman. Twardzik was a talented bop-based pianist with a potentially bright future. In 1951, he had played in Boston with Charlie Parker. He worked along the way with Charlie Mariano and Lionel Hampton, and recorded half a Pacific Jazz album, which he shared with Russ Freeman, 'Russ Freeman/Richard Twardzik Trio' (Capitol 46861). That enjoyable bop set contrasts the two complementary Baker-associated pianists, both of whom were making their debuts as leaders.""

""Chet Baker in Paris Vol. 1 (EmArcy 837474) has the trumpeter's quartet featured on nine numbers on October 11 and includes some of the best examples of Twardzik on record. It was also his last recordings for, on October 21, the pianist died of an overdose of heroin at the age of 24. One would think that Baker would learn from the tragedy (along with the example of Gerry Mulligan), but unfortunately it had no effect on the decisions he would soon make with his life. The remainder of this CD has four selections with a sextet on October 25, including a song called "In Memory of Dick".""
