There'll Never Be Another You is a live album by trumpeter Chet Baker and
guitarist Philip Catherine which was recorded in Yugoslavia in 1985 and
released on the Dutch Timeless label in 1997.
The Allmusic review states "on this particular night in Zagreb,
poor Baker was not playing his best: His chops are weak, and his voice is
strained and shallow. Still, these four duos, with longtime
collaborator, guitarist Philip Catherine, have their rewards, such as the
lengthy, substantial, and melodic solos by the guitarist. There is also the
opportunity to hear Baker's piano playing at length"
Chesney Henry Baker Jr. (December 23, 1929 – May 13, 1988) was an
American jazz trumpeter and vocalist.
Baker earned much attention and critical praise through the 1950s,
particularly for albums featuring his vocals (Chet Baker Sings, It Could Happen
to You). Jazz historian Dave Gelly described the promise of Baker's early
career as "James Dean, Sinatra, and Bix, rolled into one." His
well-publicized drug habit also drove his notoriety and fame. Baker was in and
out of jail frequently before enjoying a career resurgence in the late 1970s
and '80s.
There will be
Many other nights
Like this
And i'll be
Standing here
With someone new
There will be
Other songs to sing
Another fall
Another spring
But there
Will never be
Another you
There will be
Other lips
That i may kiss
But they
Won't thrill me
Like yours used to do
Yes
I may dream
A million dreams
But how
Can they come true
If there
Will never ever
Be another you?
There will be
Many other
Nigths like this
And i'll be
Standing here
With someone new
There will be
Other songs to sing
Another fall
Another spring
but there
Will never be
Another you
There will be
Other lips
That i may kiss
But they
Won't thrill me
Like yours used to do
Yes
I may dream
A million dreams
But how
Can they come true
If there will never
Ever be another you?
