Chet Baker - Live At Nick's

180-gram gatefold double LP

Live at Nick's is a live album by trumpeter Chet Baker which was recorded in 1978 but not released on the Dutch Criss Cross Jazz label until 1987. Baker's relationship with Europe was longstanding, and filled with periods of mutual admiration and understanding, and others of mere tolerance.

Live at Nick's was recorded in November of 1978. However, it wouldn't see the light until 1987, a year before Baker's untimely death. It finds the trumpeter in the company of New York-born pianist Phil Markowitz, with whom he had started working in February of that same year. He toured Europe with Baker in 1978 and 1979 and recorded with him for the last time at New York's Fat Tuesday's in 1981.
