This session was recorded on Monday, October 24, 1955, between 14 and 21 o'clock at the Pathe-Maggellan studio in Paris.

In answer to an offer from Nicole Barclay, Chet Baker arrived in Paris early in September 1955. On the 22nd — or maybe the 23rd — he signed a contract to make seven records… (The figure was later erased and replaced by 'three', which turned out to be correct).

Mit zehn Jahren erhielt Baker von seinem Vater, der Gitarrist war, eine Posaune.
