Far and away his single best is "Chet Baker & Crew", one of the Pacific Jazz releases (1956 or thereabouts?). It's got Phil Urso, tenor, Bobby Timmons, piano, Jimmy Bond, bass, and I can't remember the drummer. Baker and this group play with a lot more fire than was often the case on many of his recordings. I have an original mono LP that is quite well recorded as well as a routine CD reissue, but I note that there apparently are a couple of remastered CDs that add additional tracks. These might be worth checking out, since the price is only $12 on cdnow.
