Chet Baker – Blood, Chet And Tears LP (Verve By Request Series) For Cheap

Limited 180gm vinyl LP pressing. Somewhat of an oddity in Chet Baker s catalog, Blood, Chet & Tears is a record of his efforts to adapt to the changing musical landscape around him in 1970. Baker leans into light and easy-listening territory. His renditions of the Beatles Something and the Archies Sugar, Sugar gives some indication as to who he was intending to appeal to. On a different note, Baker s rendition of Come Saturday Morning, a song that received an Oscar nomination for Best Original Song, is moving and highlights his unique vocal approach. The Verve By Request Series features 180-gram vinyl, pressed at Third Man in Detroit.
