Our Take

Ah, Chet Baker, the man with the golden trumpet and the voice of an angel. His latest album, "Easy To Love," is like a warm cup of tea on a cold winter's day - soothing, comforting, and utterly delightful.

Baker's signature blend of cool jazz and smooth vocals is on full display here, transporting listeners to a smoky jazz club in the heart of New York City. From the playful title track, "Easy To Love," to the hauntingly beautiful "I Fall In Love Too Easily," each song is a masterclass in musicality and emotion.

The album kicks off with the toe-tapping "Let's Get Lost," a jaunty tune that sets the tone for the rest of the record. Baker's velvety voice glides effortlessly over the lush instrumentation, creating a sound that is as timeless as it is captivating.

But it's not all smooth sailing on "Easy To Love." Tracks like "My Funny Valentine" and "Like Someone In Love" showcase Baker's darker, more introspective side, adding depth and complexity to an already rich tapestry of sound.

Overall, "Easy To Love" is a triumph for Chet Baker, proving once again why he is considered one of the greatest jazz musicians of all time. So pour yourself a glass of wine, sit back, and let the music wash over you - you won't be disappointed. Brilliant stuff, old chap.
