Our Take
In the dimly lit, smoke-filled jazz clubs of yesteryear, Chet Baker's trumpet stood out like a lighthouse in a sea of mediocrity. The iconic crooner's latest album, "Long Ago and Far Away," is a nostalgic trip down memory lane, with dreamy melodies that transport you to a bygone era of fedoras and martini lunches. The opening track, "Happy Little Sunbeam," twinkles like a ray of sunshine on a rainy day, with Baker's velvety voice gliding effortlessly over crisp trumpet lines. It's a feel-good tune that is sure to put a smile on your face and a skip in your step. "Moon Love," on the other hand, is a slow-burning ballad that showcases Baker's emotive storytelling abilities. His whispered vocals tug at the heartstrings, while the lush instrumentation creates an ethereal dreamscape that is impossible to resist. Overall, "Long Ago and Far Away" is a masterclass in timeless jazz that proves Chet Baker's enduring legacy as a true innovator in the genre. So grab a glass of bourbon, dim the lights, and let the music transport you to a world where the only thing that matters is the sound of a trumpet in the night. Cheers to Chet Baker, the jazz legend who continues to shine brightly, long ago and far away.
