About this item

Contains new specially prepared liner notes by Penguin Guide to Jazz's writer Brian Morton and by Paris' prestigious Jazz Magazine . Unique cover photograph by renowned American jazz photographer Bob Willoughby (1927-2009).

The complementing talents of Chet Baker (1929-1988) both as a trumpet player and as a singer are now well known. His trumpet and voice are extensions of the same musical personality, and once you have become familiar with both facets of Baker, you expect to hear them both. However, Chet Baker Sings was a revelation at the time and won Baker new fame and a new audience, which was less familiar with jazz than with pop music.

Includes the bonus tracks "Let's Get Lost" and "Just Friends".
