5.0 out of 5 stars Holy Moley!, September 21, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Plays & Sings Great Ballads (Audio CD)
I was told how much I would love Chett Baker's voice, but I had no idea what I was in store for when a friend lent me this disc to listen to at work today. After the first song I was completely HOT & BOTHERED and totally incapable of working. I have never been so physically AROUSED so immediately by music before, so i might as well go home because I'm useless for anything else now except some crazy love.

4.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful renditions of old ballads, April 12, 2009
This review is from: Plays & Sings Great Ballads (Audio CD)
The ten songs Chet Baker sings on this CD bring back memories of smoky jazz bars of the fifties. And his trumpet solos enhance the songs. So romantic and moody. I love it!
