Your Favorite Chet Baker Recording

I just went to a play about Chet Bakers life featuring a lot of his music and while I am familiar with a lot don't have much of his music. I would welcome any recommendations from you audiogoner cats as to your favorite chet baker recordings - both cd and vinyl. Many thanks in advance

I guess I'm just so surprised that an audience that seems to put so much emphsis on sound and music embraces this stuff. Your point is well taken and I will refrain from further comment.

I can't stand Chet Bakers voice and his horn playing isn't much better. YUCHH!!!

Am I the only one that thinks that the only thing flatter than Chet Bakers horn is his voice? Lyrical, yes. Great side men, yes. Just so grotesquely flawed that I can't stand to be in the same room with his playing. It hurts.
