AMG:
In 1959 while in Italy, Chet Baker was showcased playing trumpet and (on five of the ten songs) singing a set of ballads while backed by a large string section. Fans will want this set but, due to the mundane string arrangements and the lack of variety, more general collectors should acquire his earlier jazz-oriented dates first. (Chet Baker with Fifty Italian Strings was reissued in 2006 with a bonus track.)

-01. I Should Care - 2:46
-02. Violets For Your Furs - 3:16
-03. Song Is You, The - 2:30
-04. When I Fall in Love - 3:34
-05. Goodbye - 4:59
-06. Autumn in New York - 3:30
