Chet Baker is an icon and needs no introduction! He is currently one of the best known and best selling Jazz artist in the world.
SWIMMING BY MOONLIGHT is a new Chet Baker album that draws from previously unreleased material recorded near the end of his life. From 1986-1987, Chet traveled and worked with the photographer and filmmaker Bruce Weber on a project that would become their Oscar-nominated documentary “Let’s Get Lost”[1988]. During this period, Chet performed at the Cannes Film Festival and recorded sessions at Studio Davout in Paris and Sage and Sound Studio in Hollywood. All remained unreleased until now.
Inspired by the film - which celebrated its 35th anniversary last year - SWIMMING BY MOONLIGHT is a two-record soundtrack album curated by Bruce Weber and produced by John Leftwich that compiles music, dialogue and live concert recordings.

I can't forget the first time I ever saw Chet. It was in New York City a long time ago, in the winter, and it was snowing a lot. I was crossing the street in front of Tiffany, at Fifty-Seventh and Fifth. Chet was in an old Chevy convertible with the top down.
He was stopped at a red light and the snow was falling all over him. His hair was all slicked down and he was listening to Zoot Sims on the car radio. He could have cared less about the snow - just the jazz.
-Bruce Weber
