Baker. Chet- Chet Baker & Strings

New Vinyl Record - Chet Baker & Strings

Audiophile, Pure Pleasure

"Just six years after Columbia Records introduced the 33 1/3 LP (in 1948), the label unveiled another successful innovation: a trumpet-and-strings album by Chet Baker. Baker proved especially appropriate for this setup due to the lyrical, singing quality of his playing. Chet Baker With Strings features various arrangers including Johnny Mandel, Marty Paich, Shorty Rogers and Jack Montrose. Included is Cole Porter's 'I Love You' arranged by Mandel." - Jazziz Magazine
