Love for Sale Live at The Rising Sun Celebrity Jazz Club

Description

Love for Sale, recorded live at Montreals Rising Sun Celebrity Club in 1978, provides an unexpurgated glimpse into the musical reality of Chet Bakers last years; a life on the move from club to club across North America and Europe. The music was often loose and ragged. But there is a solo on Snowbound that is the kind of Baker moment you wait for. It is fragile threads of luminous melody, discovered by a series of existential choices so slow they sometimes almost stop.
