Description
‘Chet Baker Sings’ is the debut vocal album by jazz musician Chet Baker, released in 1954. Until this album, Baker was almost exclusively an instrumentalist. His mother had loved his singing voice and asked him for years to sing more. He eventually sang on two tracks in October 1953: “I Fall in Love Too Easily” and “The Thrill is Gone”. Baker then requested to record a full album of his singing. Baker would return to selections from this album throughout his career. “My Funny Valentine” was regularly included in his concert performances, and is considered by some to be his signature song. In 2001, the album received the Grammy Hall of Fame Award.
