Complete album + bonus track - 180-gram virgin vinyl - limited edition includes especially prepared essay by jazz writer Brian Morton. Catalog Number: 291013 Color: Black Format: LP UPC: 8436563185816 The complementary talents of Chet Baker (1929-1988), both as a trumpet player and as a singer, are now well known, and Will MacFarland's original liner notes for the 10- inch LP Chet Baker Sings, on which he compared Chet with Louis Armstrong, still seem quite appropriate. Both his trumpet and his 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.
