Summarized by Shop
The 1954 debut by Chet Baker sounds just as fresh today as the day it came out. Chet's sweet, fragile singing voice carries through the decades - an absolute classic that lifts your spirits and cuts straight to your heart. Chet sang on this album at the insistance of his mother - his trumpet playing took main stage before this. Thank you
