    I have a Chet Baker CTI album he recorded in 74 under musical direction of
    Creed Taylor with Bob James and I guess a lot of other CTI musicians. Chet
    had not recorded for a while and the sleeve, while rather ligheartedly
    referring to an Amsterdam dealer having relieved the trumpeter of his teeth,
    also contains a stark b/w photo of a man who has clearly been round the
    block a few times The music? Well I haven't listened to it in a while but
    it's patchy. It does however contain a hauntingly beautiful take of She Was
    Too Good to be True. Recommended if you see it in a 2nd hand shop for a
    fiver.
