When Sunny Gets Blue (album)

When Sunny Gets Blue is an album by trumpeter/vocalist Chet Baker which was recorded in 1986 and released on the Danish SteepleChase label.

[1][2][3][4] The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow states "If proof is ever needed that there are too many Chet Baker albums around, this album can serve as evidence.

It is a pity, for the recording quality is good, the European rhythm section is fine, and the repertoire is quite suitable.

But there are far too many tentative and hesitant moments (along with a few clams) for this set to be on the level it should have been".

[5] The Penguin Guide to Jazz Recordings, however, describes the album as "a fine, unpredictable set", and awards it three and a half stars.
