THE WILLIAM CLAXTON COLLECTION

180 Pure Virgin Vinyl LPs in Gatefold Packaging.

The photographs of William Claxton define the essence of cool – his stunningly intimate images of icons like Chet Baker combine technical innovation and an unerring sense of the moment to forge a singular aesthetic he defined as ‘jazz for the eyes’ - Jason Ankeny (AllMusic) -

This album cover is a photo while recording Chet Baker & Ensemble in Los Angeles, December 1953. On the inside we find another shot from the same session which was used for the cover of Chet Baker & Strings recorded the following week.
