During his career, the legendary jazz trumpeter Chet Baker released several recordings on many record labels and imprints. Here is a track called "El Morro" released in 1977 on his "You Can't Go Home Again" record released on A&M and Horizon. "El Morro" is the final track on the record, composed by Don Sebesky. Sebesky arranged and conducted the string section on the record as well. A who's who of legendary jazz musicians also played on it. On this track, "El Morro", the band lineup is:
Chet Baker: trumpet
Michael Brecker: tenor saxophone
Kenny Barron: Rhodes electric piano
Gene Bertoncini: acoustic guitar
Ron Carter: bass
Tony Williams: drums
Strings Section
Violins: Charles Libove, David Nadien, Diana Halprin, Harold Kohon, Marvin Morgenstern, Matthew Raimondi, Max Ellen, Paul Gersham, and Rochelle Abramson
Cellos: Alan Shulman, Charles McCracken, & Jesse Levy
Many other musicians played on this record including the aforementioned string section and multiple pianists and guitarists. This is just my best guess of who perhaps played on "El Morro".
