Bol Posted July 20, 2003 Report Share Posted July 20, 2003 Could someone tell me on how many tracks Baker sings? I like his trumpet playing, but not his singing. I would like to have this information before I decide to buy this new re-issue. Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P.D. Posted July 20, 2003 Report Share Posted July 20, 2003 There are 10 tracks in total Baker sings on three Walkin.. which only features his trumpet in the opening chorus.. no solo What Possessed me Ann Wonderful One The singing is closer to the PJ sides, not great but not as bad as the later " attempts" at vocals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Posted July 20, 2003 Report Share Posted July 20, 2003 I bought this and his singing takes a little getting used to. If you skip those tracks, it's not a bad album. Some good playing by Phil Urso and Hal Galper. Unless you're a Chet fan, I wouldn't put this at the top of my list but it's good listen. Hope that's not too wishy-washy.

kdd Posted July 21, 2003 Report Share Posted July 21, 2003 Actually this is one of my favorite Chet records along with Baby Breeze. Similar band on both and one of his strongest, I could do without the vocals on these though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
