"Dmitri Matheny is a jazz treasure.The lyrical Matheny has impressive chops, but its his warmth and soulfulness that win you over" - All Music Guide
This performance is West Coast Cool: A Tribute To Chet Baker. Chet Baker has become an icon of American jazz. Famous for playing both trumpet and flugelhorn, Baker earned much attention and critical praise through the 1950s, particularly for albums featuring his vocals such as Chet Baker Sings and It Could Happen to You. Jazz historian Dave Gelly described the promise of Bakers early career as James Dean, Sinatra, and Bix, rolled into one. His well-publicized drug habit also drove his notoriety and fame, but such setbacks did not stop Baker from enjoying a career resurgence in the late 1970s and 80s. Along the way, Baker played and recorded with jazz heavyweights such as Stan Getz, Gerry Mulligan, Charlie Parker, and Art Pepper.
