Chet Baker, Bill Evans

Europe 2011 press.
Two jazz icons in a room, no frills, just pure class. Baker’s fragile trumpet and Evans’ lyrical piano weave around each other like they’re finishing each other’s sentences. It’s smoky, late-night music - the kind you put on when you want the world to slow down for a while. FFO: Miles without the bite, whisky poured too generously, rainy nights on Donegall Pass, and anyone who secretly prefers the ballads.
