Our Take

Chet Baker's "In New York" takes listeners on a jazzy journey through the bustling streets of the Big Apple. This album is like a smoky dive bar on a rainy night, with Baker's smooth trumpet carrying you away to a world of cool sophistication.

From the moment the first notes of "Fair Weather" hit your ears, you know you're in for a treat. Baker's velvety vocals glide effortlessly over the swaying rhythms, lulling you into a state of blissful relaxation. The mellow vibes continue with tracks like "Polka Dots and Moonbeams" and "Hotel 49," transporting you to a bygone era of sleek suits and long nights spent sipping cocktails.

But don't be fooled by the laid-back atmosphere - Baker's musicianship is top-notch, with his trumpet skills shining brightly on every track. His solos are like a beacon of light in the dark, guiding you through the twists and turns of each song with ease.

"In New York" may be over 60 years old, but it hasn't aged a day. This album is a timeless classic that will have you tapping your feet and snapping your fingers from start to finish. So grab a glass of your favourite tipple, sit back, and let Chet Baker whisk you away on a musical journey you won't soon forget. Cheers to that!
