This 2024 release has been meticulously transferred from Wally Heider’s original analog reels, ensuring every note and nuance is preserved in stunning audio quality. With its dynamic arrangements and spirited improvisation, Live In Chester is a must-hear for jazz lovers and a vital document of one of jazz’s most influential big bands in peak form.
