Chet Baker plays and sings rock songs from the late 60s! When Verve released this album in 1970, jazz critics were "not amused": "Evil Ways" by Santana, "Spinning Wheel" by Blood, Sweat & Tears, "Something" by the Beatles were not what they expected to hear from Chet Baker back then. Today, this recording with a grooving big band of exquisite LA musicians can be heard not only as a curiosity in the jazz legend's catalog, but also as a hip gem from a time of musical upheaval.
