Review
Jazz is
an amazing kind of music; however, it could get tiresome.
Unfortunately, Chet Baker's "Chet" is not one of them.
There are good moments in it, you just have to be very
patient. The only historical moment is that this is
the ONLY album where Chet Baker plays with Bill Evans.
This is the only time the two giants come together and
jam. This is perhaps the only moment that I remember
of Chet Baker's entering into the Miles Davis category.
Two things are prevalent: Miles first made "It
Never Entered My Mind" famous and Bill Evans was
Miles' group member on Kind of Blue. But this
assertion is little too far-fetched. And the result
of this album is much less promising than Kind of
Blue.
