Cool jazz trumpeter and singer Chet Baker was born in Oklahoma in 1929. He is best known for the tracks "My Funny Valentine" and "Let's Get Lost" from the Chet Baker Sings album from 1952.

5.0 out of 5 stars Just buy this album, May 25, 2005

Dice "dice" (philadelphia, pa USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: It Could Happen to You (Audio CD)

if you're having doubts about this album, just buy it. Get a bottle of smooth scotch or wine. Wait until the sun goes down on a spring or summer night. Open your windows to let the breeze through. Turn the lights off, light a few candles. Put this cd on and drink your drink slowly. It will all open up for you.

4.0 out of 5 stars Essential Chet Baker, November 15, 2002

J. Levinson (Media, PA USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: It Could Happen to You (Audio CD)

This CD showcases Chet Baker's vocal abilities at their peak. His trumpet solos are also exquisite. Kenny Drew's piano work is a textbook example of how to support a vocalist, adding instrumental spice without obstructing the singer, on par with Teddy Wilson's work with Billie Holiday. Sam Jones and Philly Joe Jones function similarly, swinging solidly in support without disturbing the mood of each tune. They are replaced by George Morrow and Dannie Richmond on a few tracks without incident. The marriage of great performance with a selection of great jazz standards guarantees a tasty listening experience, seasoned with a touch of Chet's bittersweet wistfulness.

4.0 out of 5 stars Highly Recommended..., October 1, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: It Could Happen to You (Audio CD)

This is a very nice session with Chet singing, and occasionally playing with a jazz trio, Chet Baker sings his heart out on this magnificent sessionon songs like I'm Old Fashioned and Do It The Hard Way, very nice, romantic, and highly recommended to the most critical jazz and jazz vocal fans.

1.0 out of 5 stars Worst Chet Yet
I love Chet Baker, but this is truly the worst I've heard yet. There is no connection between him and the songs, no connection between him and the musicians. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars You Want This
A subtle change of pace for Chet Baker fans. More guitar focused than some of his other albums, but in a great way.

5.0 out of 5 stars EXCELLENT!!!
This is my 2nd Chet Baker vocal album, and it's as good as the other one ("Chet Baker Sings")

5.0 out of 5 stars COOL is the word, so laid-back it's ridiculous!
Classic is the word reserved for recordings like this. Baker's vocal performance here is one of the greatest displays of 'feel' virtuosity you will ever hear in your life. Read more

or Best Of or something like that! This album is the result of Baker's first sessions for the independent Riverside label and it's just fabulous. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Album
This album is amazing. Chet Baker is equally good as a singer as he is trumpet player. The highlights for me are How Long Has This Been Going On? Read more

But not the very best example of Chet's unique singing voice. A patchy album with some weak,dispirited and rather half-hearted performances from Chet. Read more
