You Better Go Now INFO When Chet Baker lit up the West-Coast scene during the 1950s, he became a Jazz idol who appealed to a younger generation and impressed even the most acerbic critics. He jammed alongside Tenor Sax stars Vido Musso and Stan Getz, and joined Alto Sax legend Charlie Parker on various West-Coast gigs. Hailed as the Prince of Cool, Chet caused a sensation when his mellifluous Trumpet tones were first heard blending with Gerry Mulligan's deep toned Baritone Saxophone in the famous Mulligan Quartet . It was in 1952 when they joined forces on tunes like Walking Shoes and Line For Lyons. It wasn't long before they departed ways with Chet establishing his own Quartet that launched a recording career blessed by the plethora of performances gathered on this triple LP set. He plays his distinctive style of trumpet along with presenting Chet the singer. Our collection opens with Let's Get Lost and My Funny Valentine before advancing to include I Fall In Love Too Easy, The Thrill Is Gone, That Old Feeling and Chetty's Lullaby. So, let's get lost in the eternally cool world of Chet Baker.
