This CD is a re-release of Chet Baker's complete September 1983 studio session in Brussels with a trio featuring guitarist Philip Catherine and bassist Jean-Louis Rassinfosse. The session was first released on the French label Igloo (IGL034); however, all six tracks on this reissue by the Gambit label (Spain) have been carefully re-mastered employing the most current state-of-the art technology, and a comprehensive, informative 12-page booklet is also included. Gambit's reissue presents the original session comprising six (6) tracks but also includes a bonus track by the same trio performing a live, 10-minute plus version of Chet Baker's celebrated signature song, My Funny Valentine, in a European performance recorded during the spring of 1985.
\"The musical world has lost an enormous talent in May 1988. But fortunately, there is a lot of his music recorded. I heard him say one day to a journalist: 'My music will live after me.' \" – Philip Catherine, December 1988
