Chet Baker Sings (Yellow Vinyl)

Waxtime in Color 180 gram reissue of Chet Baker's 1956 album.

As Gerald Heard's liner notes point out, it's difficult to decide whether Chet Baker was a trumpet player who sang or a singer who played trumpet.

The spacious musical setting, a simple trumpet and piano-bass-drums rhythm section, is perfect for Baker's low-key style. Chet Baker Sings is a classic of West Coast cool jazz.
