You dont have to read between the lines of Keepnews carefully chosen words to realize that he and the unreliable Baker werent exactly the best of chums, and that only the passage of time allowed Keepnews to reach some kind of objectivity about their sessions. ![]() From there, Keepnews jumps to Bakers brief period as a Riverside headliner -- from August 1958 to July 1959 -- starting with three vocals of three standards. Bakers boyish pop-styled singing voice is an acquired taste, but perhaps oddly appealing as a 1950s iconic symbol of a time long gone. The remainder of the collection finds Baker only on his horn -- sometimes short on stamina, sometimes nailing a difficult passage or two, often effective at ballad tempos -- fronting teams of first-rate jazz talent. But you cant lose with a rhythm section containing Miles Davis team of Paul Chambers and Philly Joe Jones, and the likes of Pepper Adams, Bill Evans, Herbie Mann, and Zoot Sims are worthwhile foils for the former wunderkind.
