I was 7 years old when he recorded this. Hated jazz all my life. Now I’m 44 and sitting in the garden on a summer evening, surrounded by cats, drinking an old whiskey with an old smokie. Lovely.
Do you drink a lot of alcohol ? 44 is way too young to be in the blues 😢
Never too late to be a hypocrite if it corrects a mistake...age doesn't matter,Lisa Simpson listen to this and she's 8...cheers
35, life long rap and metal head, definitely getting that jazz (as well as soul, motown, funk, etc) itch. Binging Bosch didn't help haha
.....s i g h... I miss drinkin.... bliss/ ecstasy
@@belizonhah, a 1 yr old can
It's a live performance in Harajuku. I went to listen to it a long time ago.
人見記念講堂って原宿でしたっけ
How old are you 😂
@@norpriest521 Well I mean let's say they were 17 - 20 when they went they'd only be in their early to mid 50s ease up there smart ass lol
@@bigjoocy1185 Was the crowd at Hitomi Kine Kodo often 17-20 year olds in 1987? And in June?
i love how people find it impossible for you to have lived before the late 80s
Im currently studying for my IB math exams. My exam is tomorrow and i haven't studied. My dear friend Andrew Steven Chavez believes I am as how the youth would say "cooked". But I say this right now to you my friend Mr. S Chavez if you would happen to come across this comment. Andrew, I love life. Im glad im living. Although I haven't studied to a full and responsible extent, I still believe that I will do great on my exam. I am not a man of faith but I do consider myself catholic, and all i can say Steven that somehow someway I will be successful. I love you and everyone who has come across my long and sometimes short journey we call life.
WOW alex! I hope this message finds you well. I had a similar situation years ago, in 1994 to be exact. All I can say is that your friend Steve is wrong. You will do great. Best of success, because luck is no good. Luck is saying you have the possibility of being successful but also having the possibility of failing. So once I again I wish you success. Best wishises, all love- Koji Kraft😁😁
you got this
Bruh Im taking that test today, even our teachers tell us we're cooked but Im still going to try at least
How about the exam?!?
Brother I hope you made it
IB Maths is tough but you are tougher, not giving up is a sign of a good mathematician
I find Chet’s playing like singing, his vocal also is so smooth. Thank you for this concert. I can’t wait to play it for family.
Best version of Almost Blue I've ever heard. One of my all-time favorites.
For anyone wondering orange is not almost blue.
ahahahahhah @@richardcourchene7477
it plugs straight to the soul
Same vibe as Mike wazowski singing at the end of monsters inc
good to know im not the only one coming back to this just for this song
I played with him twice after he came back to Europe following this tour.
My favorite jazz artist. I remember he would be all i would listen to back when i was into opioids. The two was a perfect marriage. I still chill out to Chet at night after a couple hits of cannabis
Love you, Chet. Thanks for everything.
OMG! What a gem! They swing so well together.
You just know that Haruki Murakami was in the audience for this performance...brilliant stuff, I could listen to it all day.
this gave me chills to read this XD
Wow ,that's great !.. I feel sorry for missing the Chet Baker days of jazz because of my age..I born at 10th may 1988 ,and 3 days later Chet Baker died ..
@@berkcankilicli6714 I think he heard about your birth and he was like, better fall from this window before he gets a chance to see me live
@@FlyingTeacup historically accurate , happens all the time.
@@FlyingTeacup You changed all my thoughts about Chet ..I started to like you ,i hope you won't fall from window ....
Easily one of the finest concerts in recorded history. Late era Chet is such a treat.
If it wasn't for Chet's persistence there would have been no late era Chet. He got his teeth knocked out, usually that's the end of the line for a horn blower... And so he's the only trumpet player in history I know of that came back from that... Just by learning to play, all over again, without the support of his teeth. Most give up at that point. And Chet almost did.. Glad he didn't..
indubitably
so, so easily
He did get a set of dentures eventually and, as you say, he learned to play all over again. I believe he was off the scene for a few years, even found work in a gas station for a bit. But in concert he never lost his way.
Bien d'accord. Une pure merveille ce concert ❤ Ce piano qui vous entraîne le cœur et les tripes.. Et non, je ne parlerai pas de la consommation d'héro ou du dentier de Chet... À chacun sa vie et ses souffrances.
It's amazing to me how good Chet Baker was late in his life. His talent never faded. Some of these late recordings, like this one, are just superb.
voice was destroyed tho, don't smoke crack, kids
@@cycloneranger5354 but it makes me feel so good :/
@@cycloneranger5354 voice was never his strong suit in my opinion..
If you know the whole story this is just all the more impressive.... (See my reply to William)
@@cycloneranger5354artists are tortured souls. They akwa choose their own solutions. Mine is chocolate.
My favourite concert of all time.......and I have listened to many over 60 years !!!
Yeah, this is real jazz, man
Sorry but any legitimate favorite concert of all time requires Ella to be singing.
Did you attend it?

Took a while, but I get it now. Thank you, Mr Baker.

One of the best jazz-performances ever recorded on this planet. 🧡
Yep! They should send it off to space🎉❤
Best ever. Coming home on a foggy night, pour a glass of wine, light up my cigaret and get taken away by Chet and his amazing support on this legendary performance.
❤❤❤
Hell yeah
Whiskey and a joint for me 😊
In the last year of his life, still pitch perfect.
I didn't realize that. Wow. thanks for the tip-bit. Agreed - didn't miss a beat. Still great.
E il suono ancora di più
I cannot believe I found this on U-TUBE (with my daughter's help) discovered his music in my 20's so smooth and mellow. Thank you U-TUBE
Haha cutest comment ever. How old are you Carole? I know its rude to ask a lady but this is UTUBE not real life.
I found you on this FG with my buka and we nurziyer 12years ago so be prepared.
@@ZennyReacts based on her comment Carole will never reply, bless her soul and the lovely U-TUBE community.
@@debruce amen 😊
its spelled youtube
Not enough words to describe how good this is!
It's just shit bro
Master of Jazz.R.I.P. Chet ❤️🇵🇱
Worthy of ranking with "Kind of Blue" 🙏
Chet is a blessing to the human race. An abundance of talent that mellows any time you listen. Good vibes all day!
If the good Lord was a singer, He'd probably sound a lot like Chet !! R.I.P. you one and only !!!
Almost Blue! What a masterful performance!
Thanks to Elvis Costello
spotify removed this live album from spotify, coming here to listen to my favorite version of almost blue ❤ RIP Chet. You've helped me through my darkest days
I grew up with Chet's music us kids, as we were then, were listening to this music, rather than what the next and present generation listen to today. Still, some kids are now discovering him on CZcams and appreciating. Thank you Chet, wherever you are, I'm 87 now and still listen to the magic you left the world to enjoy. ❤❤
Should have Chet on vinyl. They can't remove that.
Chet is always a balm bath in the soul. Fantastic!
wtf is a balm bath, speak normally.
@@meghanareddyj3015 lol
this takes you to a higher level in a most emotional way
No it's just boring
@@joyce7193 Man you've got time to waste, that's the third "duh that's shit" comment I read from you
No, you're boring.
BRAVO!!!!!!!!!!!!
Imagine living in Tokyo, Japan 1987, listened to Chet Baker's one of the last few live performances….
Eso, muy bien. Y ahora serías viejito y estarías para el arrastre. Deseando haber nacido en el año 2000.
I did live there, went to this concert with my then boyfriend. Japan was right in an euphoric high of crazy bubble economy..
@@eikomori6057 Ese año Capcom lanzó MegaMan y también se lanzó Metal Gear por Konami. Y NTT comenzaba el primer servicio de telefonía móvil en Japón. 🙂
I'm there friend
@@eikomori6057 I’m so jealous of you, I’m only able to imagine that through movies and anime like City Hunter. Must be AN experience.
Found Chet when I was 14 on CZcams he opened my eyes to the world of jazz thank you Chet you blessed us all
Just cannot live without Chet Baker's music..... hauntingly beautiful.
Best reason I ever heard to stop playing this shit: the world gets rid of Chet AND you.
@@joyce7193 If you don'y like this music why are you even here? And what have I done to you to make you so unpleasant?
@@TheClive1949 Polite yet assertive. Great answer.
@@j.8315 Thank you.
@@TheClive1949 1: To teach you in the ways of the world. 2: You exist and pollute public space.
CHETS solo on My Funny Valentine was superb and felt.
Almost Blue. Almost doing things we used to do. There's a girl here and she's almost you. Almost. All the things that you promised with your eyes, I see in hers too. Now your eyes are red from crying. Almost Blue. Flirting with this disaster became me. it named me as a fool who only aimed to be. Almost Blue. Almost touching it will almost do. There's a part of me that's always true. Always. All the things that you promised with your eyes, I see in hers too. Now your eyes are red from crying. Almost you. Almost me. Almost Blue.
Portrait in Black and Blue is so beautiful!
The best version of Almost Blue I've ever heard. And I've heard him sing it many, many times. He was magic on this night.
Even his speaking voice is so smooth & musical 😍💘
My first experience with Chet Baker makes me an immediate fan.
Domenica mattina verso le 5 passeggiare tra i vicoli di Napoli con il Maestro......#Napolicultura
This is really insanely great start to finish.
His voice is like his trumpet playing.
Another level Chet for sure...
I’m 20 , been listening to this guy since like 11th grade some kid in school showed me and ever since my heartbeat is reliant almost in blues and jazz - soul , y’all should check out Gerry mulligan or joki freud sextet , hope all of you keep stepping with that signature step and livin yo lives , love , peace
Chet Baker All Day
Perfect.
Really Great performance..Cheerz to all you Horn heads out there..
I only became a Horn head by listening to Chet. Or call it drinking it in, no effort, he naturally does it all
@@arlenemassey3346 horn head here i love trumpet
As an old school jazz drummer I'm probably annoying the rest of the coffee shop people with my tapping and fiddling. Can't help it. Drummers know.
Thank you for this recording. I have always loved Chet Baker and these musicians are awesome. Enjoying on sunny Sunday afternoon with a soft breeze in my backyard and great music.
Juillet 2021, une demi-douzaine de variants et Chet pour mettre de la magie et beaucoup de beauté dans tout ce capharnaüm
Proof of concept. Life exists outside of war, sex trafficking, and destruction. You too can have a new timeline.
My one true love Chet Baker. ARSTISTY CONSCIOUSNESS RISES TO Galaxies. REST IN PEACE , ❤️ Miss you always.
I wish the world ran on jazz. That's how my Matrix would run.
omg when we sang the words Almost Blue I instantly felt like sitting in an backdoor bar somewhere in tokyo in the late 60's with a cigar and a good scotch. the good times
Hell yeah
my best music to relax, thank u chet baker
What can one say about Chet Baker, the master creator of jazz to listen to. Truly the ultimate music to immerse yourself in - bar none! Can talk endlessly about his virtuosity of trumpet playing and singing, the airy compositions, but the one feeling that I want to mention is sadness. No-one else can quite create the feeling of pain, from where true art comes. To the uninitiated, a cursory reading of his life will set the backdrop of what you hear. His catalog of music over 50 years has always had an undertone of sweet sadness. Beautiful and yes, uplifting music!
So well said! The ultimate music to immerse yourself in… the airy compositions… the sweet sadness! That’s Chet Baker.
Elliott Smith strikes me as similar, in tone anyway. But with more bitter sarcasm, whereas Chet was kind of forthright and heartbroken sounding.
@@ceef8688 That's an interesting comparison - one I would not have got myself! Yes that is true in a way: Elliott's music is beautiful yet dark and dense, whereas to me Chet's music has a sweet sadness, uplifting and comforting..
@@christobit494 yes very true. Chet is way more comforting, whereas Elliott can use even his sense of humor to bum you out
just beautiful.
Chet at his very best. Backed by a Dutch rhythm section. About a year later Chet passed, leaving a lasting void for us that remember him so well. Lovely concert. Cheers!

Best version of "Almost Blue". Unfortunately it's not on the "Let´s Get Lost" soundtrack.
Nice chill pace. A lot of times jazz or classical is too busy or doesn't fit the mood you're looking for to relax in the background. This does, its just right to sooth my mind.
That's the perfect description - soothing
Try to relax good and true friend... all will be prepared and administered by May - all costs have been met and an additional amount has been placed in you're bank accout to keep things ticking over. May is the expected month, then accompanied with future vaccination thereafter, personalised medicine can take a time more than one might wish were the case. A full recovery and genetic age reverse will be underway then. My promise is true... No, no, you can't. It's impossible, I swear it. I've looked into it. Listen to me, listen to me! There are things in there, there's a tea-bag growing! You haven't slept in sixty hours, you're in no state to tackle it. Wait till the morning, we'll go in together. Warm, thankful and loving regards... HU.
@@TheWiseMonkey8888 wtf are you talking about?
End of August, up late downtown wondering how the summer slipped through my fingers along with everything else.
11 adverts kills it.
His music is so smooth & warm like a hot toddy in a cold winter night. So much peace in this music! I forget about the world and enjoy with the rhythm! RIP Chet, thank you for your contribution.
mi abuelo me mostró este disco en el 2033, hoy en dia tengo 44 años y lo sigo escuchando
Viva el jazz, el Blus, el Rock !! Viva la música!!
I live for this type of music. me being a car guy it can make me feel in a cruising mood or a flat out fast as fuck mood. Fastest ive driven to chet baker is 167mph!! Either way he is my idol!!!
Absolutely magnificent.
i think this is the very best version of my funny valentine, i love this… 😭🥹🥹
Magnifique!
Chet, il più grande di sempre
This one takes you on a magic carpet glass elevator waltz backward through time past the dinosaurs, over jungles, down through pyramid tunnels into the mincing mind of the horn-man.
There is jazz and there is Chet, I was lucky enough to see him 3 times in Barcelona and one at R onnie´s scotts in London, he is rare, unique, unlike most jazz players he does not show off with long solos, he just conveys his feelings, this concert was superb because his musicians understood Chet, Harold danko played like Chet .not a note more than necessary, the bass player and drummer just the same. This is Jazz and not the music labelled as jazz which nowadays flow. music today is really mediocre, but thanks God we still have Chet´s lps to enjoy. Greetings from down south Barcelona to all music lovers that still know what good music is. keep on listening to lps.
I wouldn't say it's mediocre, people still convey their emotions through music in beautiful ways however it has evolved from the "golden age" of jazz into a modern form for a modern society. Now it's more common to show off your skills than show off your feelings. That's just what I've found in modern jazz though, and that's not to take away from the cats today that stick to more traditional expression and truly play what they feel.
@@willbrinkert0032 Showing off one's skills impresses the young, mostly. When I was a teen I was blown away by Maynard Ferguson. But now, his stuff all sounds the same to me and seems to lack depth.
Where in Barcelona you saw him? I’m curious because I’m born and raise there and I wonder which places hosted such a talented musician
I'm glad you mentioned the rhythm section, because they are all excellent players who support Chet perfectly and are brilliant soloists in their own right.
Sublime!
Just purchased this in vinyl, such a great performance and song list.
do you have a link where I can buy it as well? thanks!
Beautifull!!! Chet and his band in their prime? This is high class feel jazz.
40 years past his prime, but that's how good he was.
less than a year before his death
It sucks
@@joyce7193 this music? Nooo!

Чэт Бэйкер! , ребята, слушайте, учитесь, помните, и ... завидуйте! Этот чел прошёл свою жизнь с большими людьми.., как бы там ни было , он стал иконой или одним из больших мастеров в своём жанре, и потому, jazz all time...!
Que fantástica maravilla..
!!! MÚSICA!!;
So cool ,Chet.
Impossível expressar o quanto me toca o espírito ouvir "Retrato em branco e preto", de Chico Buarque de Holanda, na magistral interpretação de Chet Baker !
Fantastico.
This is classic.
Chet the "Great". Beautifull. Thanks for the share.
Lovely Music
OMG!!...this is first time i heard "Almost Blue" - soooo beautiful. And the sound quality is AMAZING!
