about

Chet Baker Plays the Best of Lerner and Loewe is exactly what the title suggests – a set of eight innovative renditions of compositions by one of the most prolific and recognizable theatrical teams of the mid-20th century. Baker’s supporting cast on this July 1959 date includes Herbie Mann on flute, piccolo, alto flute, and tenor sax; Zoot Sims on alto and tenor saxophones; Pepper Adams on bari sax; Bill Evans and Bob Corwin trading off piano duties on various tracks; Earl May on bass; and Clifford Jarvis on drums.

The album "is easily heard as a sequel to the popular Chet (also on Riverside) album of standards released earlier that same great-jazz year of 1959," says James Rozzi in his liner notes to the reissue. "The mix of personnel throughout the set provides the recording "with a similar timbre while adding uptempo fare to the previously released, slow and relaxed ballad set of Chet."
