@lewm 

Do you have any experience or thoughts on the Craft label? I've been seeing quite a few interesting reissues popping up on that label, but would like to hear some firsthand experiences from folks who've given them a try before I jump on anything.

I'll look into those Sam Records pressings.

I love Chet Baker.... 

He never played much  for playing but to sing with a trumpet.... It is way more difficult than it seems... If not, why nobody could ever replicate his musicality?


I love Kenneth Wheeler for example but  he dont sing and probably could not even if it is a genius in his own right....I want all his cd.....I already own near 100 Chet Baker....
