As the subtitle to BAKER's DOZEN indicates, Proulx's followup is a more-or-less straight tribute to Chet Baker, the eerily romantic vocalist even more than the cool jazz trumpter. The warmed-toned Dominick Farinacci ably takes care of the trumpet and flugelhorn duties anyway, so this is very much a singer's album, a singer with a strong, lush style on piano it should be mentioned. As a singer, Proulx has a youthful spare sound, much like Baker himself, although he has greater range and staying power. (As effective as he was, Baker's semi-amateur vocals always made it on novelty value too). It's a pleasure to hear these note-perfect versions of \"Let's Get Lost,\" \"Look For The Silver Lining,\" \"My Funny Valentine,\" and other Chet Baker signature tunes. For lovers of song-oriented jazz musicianship in a contemporary context, one could hardly improve on John Proulx.","brand":"MovieMars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48493673808159,"sku":"610614050621","price":20.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/7833\/0399\/files\/edd65ec1befb5e58e54d7c15ea46dd7d_16f05d6f-f64b-4de8-a5ff-3461a62473c1.jpg?v=1781521433","url":"https:\/\/www.moviemars.com\/products\/bakers-dozen-remembering-chet-baker","provider":"MovieMars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
