Chet Baker returned to Europe in the mid 70's where he spent the rest of his life, performing there primarily but with occasional trips to Japan and short periods back in the USA. During this period living in Europe, Chet Baker recorded some amazing albums for Danish jazz label Steeplechase before his tragic death in Amsterdam, Netherlands in 1988.

Featuring Duke Jordan “… outstanding among [Chet’s] later recordings….This is a record to give a listener fresh heart…one feels there cannot be much wrong with jazz while it is producing records like this .” (Max Harrison, International Jazz Journal)

Pianist Duke Jordan's presence adds some punch and spark to this quartet session, which is further helped along by bassist Niels Henning-Orsted Pedersen and selections that are suited for Baker's increasingly mellow and wavering playing.
