In past 7 months I heard this amazingly touching performance more than 50 times and never enough CHET BAKERs tragic life imbedded into. Hearing more he becomes my favorite, not so funny but sad Valentine. Amazing and old style Jazz in its best.
Chet Baker Brings IT every time!!! He's moved me more than any artist ever. They say, a singer can't sing it with their hart , if they haven't had it OR been there! You hear it in his voice and you can see it in the deep lines all over his face... he'll always move me like none other.... Chet Rules!!
hits the nail on the head--one of those singers whose voices are truly instrumental--hear it in the pitch, tempo, phrasing--truly exceptional--essence of jazz
This is Classic Great Chet all the pain this is hert and soul!The way he builds the band to get the time going!!! If your jazz trumpet player listen and learn.This video was taken off for a while Thank God its back!This is GOLD!!!!! BM
I'm about to cry watching this. His version of this song has always melted my heart to a big ol' puddle. I've never heard it live before. His voice was so smooth and lovely and soothing...
There was no more complete jazz musician than Chet when he first appeared on the scene - They called him the Male Elizabeth Taylor - he was so handsome. He played by ear. I think the jury is still out regarding drugs and art. The combination produced too much greatness for us not to stop and wonder. I've known too many artists who confessed to doing their best work while drugged (especially on alcohol) for me to pass judgement. Chet was the greatest, but he died violently as he lived.
My God, I miss this man and his music. You people listening to Kenny G, thinking you are listening to jazz, need another think - THIS is jazz at its finest. This is what jazz really IS.
Artistry transcends mere drugs. Michael Jackson was bigger than aspirin just like Chet Baker was much bigger than heroin. Listens with your ears fools not with your P.C.

Every now and again someone comes along and shows the rest of us what it is like to enjoy their magic. Chet was one of those few. Thanks for sharing.

It's amazing how such beauty can spring from such tragedy and hard times, and Chet certainly knew both.
Find him any excuses whatsoever, this, ladies and gentlemen, is pure music, period.

My all time no1 hero, Chet, the only one who can bring me tears and shivers.
Damned good bassplayer too, Hein van der Geyn.
Absolutely gorgeous. Absoutely astounding. Such a heartfelt rendition. It exceeds even his previous interpretations.
Il piu grande di tutti i tempi.. la migliore versione di my funny valentine in assoluto. Mi commuove ogni volta che lo sento. Che intesità

What a great talent. I am very thankful you shared this video. This is truly a performance I feel priveleged to have seen. Thanks again Vladimirs.
Gracias Vladimir por tan maravilloso material musical
My God, I miss this man and his music. You people listening to Kenny G, thinking you are listening to jazz, need another think - THIS is jazz at its finest. This is what jazz really IS.
Chet Baker's version is maybe the best one. Txs & congrats Vladimir!
Riesce ad esprimere un sentimento altro dal dolore, o la gioia, o la tristezza, o la notte, o il sole...
So sweet & pure.
Qué bueno que compartas esto. Lo habían quitado y es maravilloso poder escucharlo de nuevo. Muchas gracias!
This is as good as it gets. Thanks Vladimir for posting it. Have been looking for this one!
Me saco el sombrero. Un artista de verdad. Que expresion!
Chet baker rules!!!!!! this is classic!!!!!
AMAZINGLY WONDERFUL
meravigliosamente chet....grazie...
To me, "One Night In Tokyo" and "Kind Of Blue" ranks as the two all time best jazz albums. They are equally good.
He is beyond the stage..i don't know if he was ''high'' or not...i just know THIS MUSIC is the DOPE FOR ME.....!!
My God, the raw emotion in this performance just makes me weak! Those of you who think of Kenny G as a "jazzman" - take heed: THIS is a jazzman!
Beautiful:Thank you for sharing.
I don't have words
So beautiful it hurts, indeed!
OBRIGADA
;-)

can i find this version in audio?
If Chet never got involved in dope he would be up there with Sinatra etc
......EXTRA!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@mickysax1 he is up there w/Sinatra. Frank drank..was a mean drunk...his drug of choice.
I agree the chet we know was the chet on heroin...
