“The new compilation Great Moments With… showcases the remarkable moments of Chet Baker’s career, featuring both his vocals and trumpet work. It spans his final five and a half years, during which he collaborated closely with the Wim Wigt Timeless Records agency in the Netherlands. The album includes a mix of bebop and ballads, along with the previously unreleased bonus track “But Not For Me”. During this period, Baker benefited from the agency’s management, leading to fewer missed performances and increased fame. His relationship with Wigt and his team, including his girlfriend Diane Vavra, key figures like tour manager Peter Huijts and record engineer Max Bolleman, significantly enhanced his career. The double album traces his journey with Wigt, beginning with the opening track “Ray’s Ideas”, and the ballad “Everything Happens To Me” and concludes with the previously unreleased track “But Not From Me”. The album highlights his work with European musicians and features recordings from various sessions, including performances with Dexter Gordon’s rhythm section, his own trio, and a rare live recording from Zagreb. The Great Moments With LP… not only celebrates Baker’s legacy but continues to inspire and resonate with new generations. Great Moments With…is available as a limited edition of 1500 individually numbered copies on white coloured vinyl. The 2LP includes new liner notes by Jeroen de Valk and is housed in heavy cardboard linnen laminated gatefold sleeve.
