Chet Baker - Chet Baker Sings [140G] (Blue Note Essential Series)

Chet Baker Chet Baker Sings Reissued for the Blue Note Essential Series on LP: Mastered from Hi-Resolution Digital Masters on 140 gram vinyl.

There are several Chet Baker albums with the title Chet Baker Sings, but this one recorded for Pacific Jazz in 1954 and 1956 is the original, and arguably, the best. The album features Chet’s indelible vocals and sterling trumpet playing with two different quartet line-ups both featuring pianist Russ Freeman on a set of classic standards that he made his own including “My Funny Valentine,” “That Old Feeling,” and “I Fall in Love Too Easily.”

That Old Feeling
It’s Always You
Like Someone in Love
My Ideal
I’ve Never Been in Love Before
My Buddy

Side B:

But Not for Me
Time After Time
I Get Along Without You Very Well
My Funny Valentine
There Will Never Be Another You
The Thrill is Gone
I Fall in Love Too Easily
Look for the Silver Lining
