The song was released as a single in 1962 in Italy. ==Background== "Chetty's Lullaby" was released as a 45 single by RCA Records in June, 1962 as PM 45-3068 in mono backed with "So che ti perderò".〔(Chet Baker - The Italian Discography. )〕 The track was recorded during the ''Chet Is Back!'' sessions for RCA in Rome at RCA's studios in the spring of 1962. Ennio Morricone was the conductor and arranger. The choir on the session is The Swingers. The track was released as a bonus track on the ''Chet is Back!'' CD release by RCA in 2003 in the U.S.〔(Chet is Back! Discogs. )〕 Chet Baker plays the trumpet and also sings on the track. The song was only released in Italy as a vinyl 7" 45 picture sleeve single. The lyrics are in Italian. Chet Baker composed the music. Alessandro Maffei wrote the lyrics. Maffei also wrote the lyrics to "So che ti perdero". The song was written for Chet Baker's son. The recording was also featured on the 1999 compilation box set ''The Ennio Morricone Chronicles'' on BMG International. "Chetty's Lullaby" appeared on the soundtrack of the 1988 Academy Award-nominated documentary film ''Let's Get Lost''. In August, 1960, Chet Baker was arrested in Lucca, Italy. He was convicted of drug smuggling and forgery and sentenced to a year, seven months, and ten days in a Lucca prison. When he was released early, in December, 1961, RCA Italiana organized collaborative sessions with composer, arranger, and conductor Ennio Morricone. In 1962, they recorded four of Chet Baker's own compositions that he wrote while incarcerated: "Chetty's Lullaby", "So che ti perderò", "Il mio domain", and "Motivo su raggio di luna". A 2012 play by Stephan Delbos used the title of the song in dramatizing the period when the song was recorded during Chet Baker's stay in Italy in the early 1960s. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Chetty's Lullaby」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
