Our Take

Ah, Chet Baker - the jazz legend whose smooth vocals and effortless trumpet playing have captivated audiences for decades. Now, his iconic album "Chet" has been reissued on limited edition grey marble vinyl for all you audiophiles out there.

From the moment the needle hits the groove, you're transported to a smoky nightclub in 1950s Manhattan, sipping on a martini and basking in Baker's velvety tones. The opening track, "Alone Together," sets the tone for the rest of the album - intimate, soulful, and oh so cool.

Baker's rendition of "Time After Time" is a standout moment, with his tender falsetto soaring over the gentle trumpet melody. It's a masterclass in melancholy beauty that will leave you reaching for the tissues.

But it's not all ballads and heartbreak - tracks like "Chet" and "Pent Up House" showcase Baker's prowess as a musician, with his nimble trumpet work dazzling listeners at every turn.

Overall, this reissue of "Chet" is a must-have for any jazz aficionado or vinyl enthusiast. So sit back, pour yourself a drink, and let Chet Baker's music wash over you like a warm wave of nostalgia. You won't regret it.
