The Boplicity label was one of the earliest entries into the jazz reissue market in the mid 1980s, In 2013 we are re-launching the label as the home for our small but distinct catalogue of 1950s and 1960s 'modern jazz', Each of the releases will strive for the highest quality in sound reproduction, mastered from fresh transfers from first generation mastertapes, and featuring bonus tracks where relevant.

All have been remastered from source tapes, have fresh sleeve notes and are packaged in a digipack.

" As part of the re-launch of our Boplicity label, this month we features some of the jazz recordings first issued by LA-based Modern Records on their Crown label.

" Each of the releases has the highest quality sound mastered from fresh transfers from first generation master-tapes.

" Chet Baker was the face of 1950s West Coast jazz, His sublime trumpet-playing combined with film-star good looks made him a star, His recordings for Pacific Jazz were the very apex of his career, and often considered the finest of these were the sessions that produced "Chet Baker & Crew".

" Six years later Pacific sold this set of out-takes to Modern, Featuring saxophonist Phil Urso and pianist Bobby Timmons, these are every bit as good as the originally released versions.

" A mid-price digipak release.
