As always,\nBaker employed a star-studded lineup consisting among others of Ron Carter on bass, Jack DeJohnette on drums (both alumni of Miles’ fusion period),\nPaul Desmond on alto saxophone and Hubert Laws on flute. Throw master arranger, Don Sebesky, in the mix and you have yourself a vintage CTI record.","brand":"Music On Vinyl","offers":[{"title":"Crystal Clear LP in Gatefold Sleeve","offer_id":50717401219350,"sku":"RMX-58585","price":32.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7750\/2998\/files\/851810c48c2b41301b026aecbf7ae376.png?v=1763043859","url":"https:\/\/resident-music-uk.myshopify.com\/products\/baker-chet-she-was-too-good-to-me-2025-reissue","provider":"Resident Music UK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
