Info for Cool Burnin' With The Chet Baker Quintet (Mono Remastered)

Cool Burnin' with the Chet Baker Quintet is an album by trumpeter Chet Baker which was recorded in 1965 and released on the Prestige label.

"These sessions capture Baker’s raw, searching artistry at a time of personal and musical transformation — returning to the U.S. after years in Europe and channeling his experiences into a darker, more introspective sound. With a stellar quintet featuring George Coleman, Kirk Lightsey, Herman Wright, and Roy Brooks, Baker blends lyrical cool with East Coast grit and emotional depth."

These aren’t just “late-era” Chet recordings - they’re a document of reinvention. For collectors, this fills a crucial gap between his iconic 1950s cool jazz era and his darker 1970s European sessions. The interplay with Coleman is especially rare and electric. “These sessions let one know he could break through his "cool" image by playing heated bop when he wanted to. It also finds him debuting on flugel horn and the softer tone fits his introverted sound well"
