Details: Amazon.ca On the unfortunate occasion of the theft of his trumpet, Chet Baker fills the flugelhorn for this series of recordings in the company, on certain titles, of guitarist Kenny Burrell. This is the "youth" of Chet Baker whose tone and sound are more removed with, as a bonus, already, the announcement of the mastery of the instrument. A recording where the blues is still present, even if Chet Baker's voice is more direct, like that of a (too) young crooner. The use of the flugelhorn adds, if it were needed, velvety to the game already imbued with tenderness of the trumpeter. The exposition of the theme "The Touch of Your Lips" confirms Baker as a lost child of jazz. A record where the sound palette of Chet Baker is combined on all tempos and all moods. --Jean-Michel Schlosser
