  • I was 7 years old when he recorded this. Hated jazz all my life. Now I’m 44 and sitting in the garden on a summer evening, surrounded by cats, drinking an old whiskey with an old smokie. Lovely.

    Best version of Almost Blue I've ever heard. One of my all-time favorites.
  • @user-mx5jm6on4j
    It's a live performance in Harajuku. I went to listen to it a long time ago.
  • @OaktownBman
    In the last year of his life, still pitch perfect.
  • I live for this type of music. me being a car guy it can make me feel in a cruising mood or a flat out fast as fuck mood. Fastest ive driven to chet baker is 167mph!! Either way he is my idol!!!

  • @1122redbird
    It's amazing to me how good Chet Baker was late in his life. His talent never faded. Some of these late recordings, like this one, are just superb.
  • Easily one of the finest concerts in recorded history. Late era Chet is such a treat.
  • @compegord07
    Chet is a blessing to the human race. An abundance of talent that mellows any time you listen. Good vibes all day!
