Chet Baker - Tenderly free for downloading

I didn’t realize what an excellent musician he was when I met him, back in 60’s or 70’s. He was fresh out of prison. Drove for hours in the back of a Citroen, all the way to Mendocino. We couldn’t tell anybody he was with us as he was on parole and wasn’t supposed to leave Santa Cruz county. Played with the band Warmth at the Albion River Inn. That’s when I found out about Chet Baker.

My dad passed away on 20.01.2019. We would always listen to jazz music. This piece in particular was one of his favourites. He would always say if you listen closely you will hear more than just music. It's life, it's pain, it's joy all rolled into one. Thanks dad for sharing your music with me. I love it and always will. This music is timeless and means more than any of the music we have nowadays

His playing is so simple and pure, it is perfection.

chet's musics is a "good night" to the hearts and minds exhausted at the end of the day. :')

I have 23 years old and my friends laugh at me because I listen this all day,they don't have the good taste in music. Being a Latin American men who have bad influence like Latin trap, reggaeton and all of that it's hard.

I want to be a detective drinking and smoking in a bar in new orleans now

My parrakeets love this, they chirping softly and sweetly

USA, this song had me at 14 years old, my private lessons instructor told me I reminded him of Chet. We started playing some of his work, this particular version of Tenderly touched me the most, it painted my being a different color for the rest of my life, changed forever. It influences my heart in ways I can't describe, I'm a better person because of this recording. We love you Chet, rest in peace brother.

My cat Luna loves this song. Everytime I put it on she just lays down and listens

I've been around for 81 years and listened to Chet Baker for probably 60 of them. He had a touch with the horn that was incredible. Even after he got his teeth knocked out the music was still present. It's essential that younger folks listen to the past and the era where jazz reached out to many of us. Put together Jerry Mulligan and Chet baker and there was a special magic. If I live to 100 I'll still be listening to jazz. It's part of my soul. Stay cool

Who else listening this standard in 2019

If this song sounds a little familiar it's Tenderly by Santo and Johnny

Had this playing in my office, old foreign man walks in, and mid-discussion goes "is this chet baker?" global influence!

To all the jazz lovers and specially Chet's fans. I highly recommend "Concierto de Aranjuez" with Chet Baker & Paul Desmond & Jim Hall &Ron Carter &Steve Gadd & Roland Hanna. Just write Concierto de Aranjuez, Chet Baker and click, you'll hit this magnificent music.Good luck.From New Orleans the city of jazz.

I can listen to this song for the rest of my life and still get lost in the beautiful melody. Now, that's true love my friends.

"Shouldn't you be listening to something more for your generation?" No, because Jazz and Blues never grow old.

Whoever sees this. I hope you are having a very enjoyable day (preferably night time). Drifting off to Chet have made my nights great, along with a certain person to talk to.

Chet always touches my soul. When he plays, it's like He is talking to me directly, in a language that my brain can't understand, but my heart and my soul catch and are delighted of. Thank you Chet!
