Drugi wokalny album Cheta Bakera wydany w 1958 przez wytwórnię Riverside Records, zawierająca nagrania artysty zarejestrowane w tym samym roku w Nowym Jorku. Całość w tym audiofilskim, limitowanym wydaniu z 2021 roku została poddana cyfrowemu remasteringowi i wzbogacona osmioma utworami bonusowymi nieobecnymi na pierwszym wydaniu płyty.
Płyta jest kontynuacją formuły dwóch innych albumów Bakera: Chet Baker Sings (1954) i Chet Baker Sings and Plays with Bud Shank, Russ Freeman & Strings (nagrany w 1955, wydany w 1964), w którym sięga po jazzowe standardy, odczytując je na nowo.

Editor's Info:
The roller-coaster career of trumpeter Chet Baker included an early rise to fame during the mid-1950s, beginning with his key role in the Gerry Mulligan Quartet. That period included much popular success as a singer. Accordingly, his four-album stay with Riverside at the end of that decade began with a record that, although it does include some instrumental solos, focuses primarily on his vocals. Like most of Baker’s Riverside work, this is an uneven album, but it features some strong support by pianist Kenny Drew, and on the most successful numbers (among them three Rodgers & Hart compositions) offers clear indication of Chet’s individuality and effectiveness.
