Our Take

Chet Baker's iconic album "CHET BAKER Sings" is a smooth and effortlessly cool collection of jazz standards that showcases the legendary trumpeter's velvety vocals.

From the moment Baker croons his way through the opening track, "My Funny Valentine," it's clear that this album is a masterclass in laid-back charm. His intimate delivery and impeccable phrasing draw listeners in, transporting them to dimly lit jazz clubs and smoky piano lounges.

Tracks like "But Not for Me" and "I Fall in Love Too Easily" showcase Baker's unmatched ability to wring every ounce of emotion from a lyric, while his scatting on "Shiny Stockings" is a playful and infectious display of his improvisational skills.

The album's production is clean and understated, allowing Baker's voice to take centre stage. His effortless vocals glide over the lush arrangements, creating a sense of timelessness that is as captivating now as it was when the album was first released.

Overall, "CHET BAKER Sings" is a must-have for any jazz fan, and a perfect introduction to the sublime talent of one of the genre's true legends. So grab a glass of your favourite tipple, kick back, and let Chet Baker serenade you into a state of blissful relaxation. Trust us, you won't regret it.
