ALL MUSIC GUIDE: CHET IS BACK!
“Recorded in Italy in 1962, Chet Is Back! showcases the ‘cool’ trumpeter cutting loose on such bop-oriented workouts as ‘Pent-Up House’ and ‘Well, You Needn't’. Backed skillfully by a young cadre of up-and-coming European musicians, including the stellar saxophonist Bobby Jaspar, Chet Baker may have never sounded better, including the ballads. One listen to ‘Over the Rainbow’ and it's clear this is an overlooked Baker classic.” (Matt Collar)
