If you like the music of Chet Baker, buy this. The members include Kenny Burrell and Bill Evans : )
LP would sound better if you have a very good stereo system.

The session sounds like it was recorded in two rooms. The frontline of Baker, Pepper Adams, and Herbie Mann are well recorded while the rhythm section is usually in the distance. You have to strain to hear the comping and most of the solos of Bill Evans and Kenny Burrell. With the likes of Paul Chambers and Philly Joe Jones (or Connie Kay) on bass and drums why is the mix so unbalanced? The high point of the recording is the generous solo time allotted to Adams which is a treat. Good Baker, but he's not pushing much, a whiff of easy listening jazz is in the air. Wish I could hear Evans, Burrell, and Jones/Kay better. A big disappointment. I'll probably give this one to the local library.

I bought the 180 gram DOL yellow vinyl album of Chet. I had done a little research about the DOL pressings and the company (Russian) got mixed reviews. I did find one reviewer, though, who found the company had pressings that were quiet and had exemplary sound. I personally found this with my copy of Chet. Chet's trumpet sounds beautiful and each instrument is heard in fine stereo form. The vinyl is very quiet (no pops) and, although I initially thought I may not like the DOL pressing, I'm impressed with it. I find I really enjoy the music and the way it sounds on this fine vinyl copy...and you won't be paying the usual high 180 gram audio cost.

The first track "Alone Together" began with the promise of pure magic. How could an album of lyrical tunes with Bill Evans on piano, Kenny Burrell on guitar, Paul Chambers on bass, Philly Joe Jones or Connie Kay on drums, Herbie Mann on flute, and Chet on trumpet fail to do anything but cast an enchantment over the perfectly appointed candle-light dinner for two I'd put together for my overworked wife home late from a stressful week at the office? Surely this was a combo in the corner of a private dinner club made in heaven.
Then, less than a minute and a half in, before I could finish pouring the wine, Pepper Adams was honking out something on bari sax that only a bull moose would find romantic.
If Pepper had stayed home this would have been one of the best late night, evocative jazz sets ever recorded. But he didn't, and it isn't.

Chet Baker has become one of my favorite trumpeters. His trumpet playing is lyrical, but on many other albums he has proven himself a quite capable technician on his instrument. Anyone who doubts his technical ability should check out his quartets with saxophonist Gerry Mulligan and pianist Russ Freeman. He was a master of playing playing, which is what this 1959 recording consists of. Every single track is rendered beautifully by the space given in Chet's lines. Chet is joined by some of the best jazz musicians at that time: Bill Evans, Pepper Adams, Kenny Burrell, Herbie Mann, Paul Chambers, Connie Kay, and Philly Joe Jones. Anyone looking for some swing will have to look elsewhere. This album is nothing but ballads. I highly recommend this recording to anyone who is a potential fan of Chet's and for anyone interested in collecting Bill Evans session work, which he didn't do much of at all during his career.

Chet Baker is to die for. This jazz fan didn't know about him til the recent movie, which is a must see.
I don't know whether this is the best possible of his available CDs, but it's good enough. He does
standards with a sweet, sometimes lonely sound. (He was probably deeply lonely, since he chose
heroin as his favorite companion.) I love listening to it over dinner.

I am a trumpet player and Chet is my trumpet GOD, so that should tell you about my background. This LP printing is 2nd to none, imaging, tension, and presence is first class. The yellow vinyl is tacky, but who cares.....

If Pacific Jazz / Soft Jazz are for you, this is a masterpiece of its era. Great recording of a great performance.

One of Chets’ most beautiful recordings
Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on February 16, 2020
Why on Earth has it taken me many years to fall in love with this beautiful recording? What a pleasure it is to revisit it in this 24 bit remastering. I had previously been fixated on the lack of soloing by Bill Evans. Chet Baker and Bill Evans together - Surely a match made in heaven. But the lack of soloing by Evans used to disappoint me dreadfully. Once I accepted the piano as a simple delicate accompaniment everything fell into place. Now I can enjoy Chets’ elegant solos and the gorgeous contributions from Pepper Adams, so rich and yet so delicate and Herbie Mann who is equally great on flute. Critics have long complained about the so called ‘Junkie Beat’ of the slow tempos on some tracks: a reference to the drug habits of most of these musicians. Sadly the somewhat dark and destructive biography of Baker by James Gavin picks up on this criticism and has done its share of damage to the appreciation of Bakers better recordings, mostly of the 70s onwards but even to a few notable recordings in the 50s/60s such as this one. I am currently reading the outstanding biography by jazz aficionado Matthew Ruddick ‘Funny Valentine- the story of Chet Baker’. At last we can really appreciate in full both the darkness and the beauty to be found in Chets’ life and music. Do not deny yourself this beautiful recording.

Lyrical and sensitive jazz from Chet Baker in 1958/59.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on April 7, 2015
Trumpeter Chet Baker(1929-1988) recorded these excellent sessions in New York City on December 30, 1958 & January 19, 1959 with a personnel drawn from Baker(trumpet); Pepper Adams(baritone sax); Herbie Mann(flute); Bill Evans(piano); Kenny Burrell(guitar); Paul Chambers(bass) & Connie Kay or Philly Joe Jones(drums).
The ten memorable tracks include one Baker original and nine standards. There's a high level of empathy within the various groups and superb solos from Chet, Pepper Adams, Herbie Mann & Bill Evans.
The beautiful and lyrical jazz contained on 'Chet'(Keepnews Collection) makes this one of the trumpeter's finest albums.

Cool jazz
Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on August 27, 2014
I guess if you had to label Chet Baker's style I would use the terms 'West coast' or 'Cool'; whatever, this is brilliant playing and is so easy to listen to. I play saxophone and tend to focus my listening on some of the great saxophonists; however, when I heard this I was blown away. Buy and enjoy!
