Our Take

Picture this: you're sipping on a dirty martini in a smoky jazz club, the smooth sound of a trumpet filling the room. That's the vibe I get when listening to Chet Baker's album "Chet", now available on coloured vinyl.

This collection of classics showcases Baker's undeniable talent as a jazz musician. His soulful trumpet playing is like butter melting over a warm piece of toast - smooth and satisfying. Each note feels like a caress on the cheek, transporting you to a dimly lit room where the music is the only thing that matters.

The album opens with the hauntingly beautiful "Alone Together", a track that sets the tone for what's to come. Baker's vocals on "My Funny Valentine" are so tender, they might just bring a tear to your eye.

But don't be fooled by the laid-back nature of Baker's music. Tracks like "My Ideal" and "Chetty's Lullaby" show off his technical prowess and improvisational skills, leaving you in awe of his sheer talent.

Overall, "Chet" is a masterclass in jazz music - a timeless album that deserves a spot in every music lover's collection. So grab a glass of your favourite tipple, sink into your favourite armchair, and let Chet Baker serenade you into the night. You won't regret it.
