He was known for his clear tone, reflective and subdued style, soft volume and careful, restrained approach in his choices of notes for melodic sequences. He played in an army of bands before working briefly with Charlie Parker in 1952. Baker's voice on this recording clings to the melody, threatening to disintegrate at any moment. Many of his best tunes-\"I Fall in Love Too Easily,\" \"But Not for Me,\" \"Let's Get Lost\"-are collected here, and as such, there is no better place to begin an appreciation of Baker's unique singing. Once Chet Baker arrived in California from his native Oklahoma, his career exploded. After landing gigs with Charlie Parker and Gerry Mulligan, Baker soon found himself a solo star and bandleader. Not long after that, he also found himself whispering love songs into a microphone. Baker was not gifted with the most robust voice of the day. Indeed, listening to pure singers like Nat King Cole or Johnny Hartman can expose Baker's weaknesses, but what Baker did he did well. By choosing wistful, so-young, so-in-love tunes, Baker was able to pour his heart into the material, sketching soft, romantic moods and painting himself as the broken-hearted innocent. The effect can be devastating, as Baker's voice clings to the melody, threatening to disintegrate at any moment. Many of his best tunes--\"I Fall in Love Too Easily\", \"But Not for Me\", \"Let's Get Lost\"--are collected here, and, as such, there is no better place to begin an appreciation of Baker's unique singing. --S.

Chet Baker's music had characteristics of it's own. Of a bebop nature in the fast pieces, he had in solos that complex and pulsating way that characterized this style. He differed from it in the soft timbre of the trumpet, which rarely indulged in the \"flare-ups\" typical of the boppers, and above all for the insistent use of pauses. These were precisely one of the cornerstones of his musical language. In the ballads the trumpeter-singer expanded them to the point of absurdity (and so did with the notes), making them spaces charged of meaning, as can be seen in the somber I'm a Fool to Want You, made famous by Billie Holiday, and also in the serene In a Sentimental Mood. In this final phase of his career, Baker often liked to have groups without drums with him because, in addition to allowing him to maintain a muffled volume in his singing and trumpet playing, the drumless situation guaranteed him greater freedom. Only the double bass player was left to keep time, a role here entrusted to a solid Knauer. In Ferrara, a sensitive French pianist, Michel Graillier, took the stage; in those years he was looking for a synthesis between the energy of McCoy Tyner and the harmonic language of Bill Evans. Finally, the presence of a piano allowed Stilo to limit the use of the other harmonic instrument, the guitar, in favor of the flute.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Red Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47825649172698,"sku":"8054154650743","price":30.98,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0799\/7787\/3626\/files\/SHINE_tknags.jpg?v=1777695015"},{"product_id":"chet-baker-shine-180-gram-sticker-stickers-gatefold-lp-jacket-vinyl","title":"Chet Baker – Shine – 180 Gram Vinyl LP","description":"\u003cp\u003eShine is a jazz album by Chet Baker on Red Records.

Chet Baker showed with his music that little bit of dark substance that exists in the human being - the shadow side - just as very few other jazz musicians have been able to do. However, such a reading that looks for traces of anguish and self-destruction in every note - and which has also been translated into a couple of films - has ended up overshadowing something very important: namely, that Chet Baker was a top-notch jazz musician, the creator of a unique and personal poetics, an interpreter who did not wallow in his own torments but who also knew how to take less introspective paths, including a superfine and very lively swing. In this final phase of his career, Baker often liked to have groups without drums with him because, in addition to allowing him to maintain a muffled volume in his singing and trumpet playing, the drumless situation guaranteed him greater freedom. Only the double bass player was left to keep time, a role here entrusted to a solid Knauer. In Ferrara, a sensitive French pianist, Michel Graillier, took the stage; in those years he was looking for a synthesis between the energy of McCoy Tyner and the harmonic language of Bill Evans. Finally, the presence of a piano allowed Stilo to limit the use of the other harmonic instrument, the guitar, in favor of the flute.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Red Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47957511831770,"sku":"8054154650729","price":61.41,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0799\/7787\/3626\/files\/SHINE_n4uxrc.jpg?v=1780751697"},{"product_id":"chet-baker-she-was-too-good-to-me-limited-gatefold-180-gram-crystal-clear-vinyl","title":"Chet Baker – She Was Too Good To Me – Limited Edition Vinyl LP","description":"\u003cp\u003eFrom Chet Baker comes She Was Too Good To Me, a jazz album on Music on Vinyl.

The immensely talented Chet Baker had a complex relationship with the music scene and after almost 20 years of performing he withdrew from the business. In 1973 he vowed to make a comeback, returning to the straight-ahead jazz that started his career. She Was Too Good To Me was released in 1974 by Creed Taylor's legendary CTI label, by then home to Freddie Hubbard, Stanley Turrentine, Deodato and many others, and is considered Baker's comeback album. This record is indeed a beautiful homage to the bop sound of the early 50s but with the unmistakeable forward-thinking attitude for which CTI became famous. Bob James here plays on electric piano for example, injecting a dose of funk into the tunes to move them into the 70s zeitgeist. As always, Baker employed a star-studded lineup consisting among others of Ron Carter on bass, Jack DeJohnette on drums (both alumni of Miles' fusion period), Paul Desmond on alto saxophone and Hubert Laws on flute. Throw master arranger Don Sebesky in the mix and you have yourself a vintage CTI record.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Music on Vinyl","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48056265081050,"sku":"8719262041356","price":45.51,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0799\/7787\/3626\/files\/SHEWASTOOGOODTOMELIMITEDEDITIONCRYSTALCLEARVINYL_xhtqpi.jpg?v=1781462358"},{"product_id":"chet-baker-chet-baker-sings-blue-note-essentials-series-vinyl","title":"Chet Baker – Chet Baker Sings (Blue Note Essentials Series) Vinyl LP","description":"\u003cp\u003eChet Baker Sings (Blue Note Essentials Series) is a jazz compilation by Chet Baker on Blue Note Records.
