Baker's Holiday is an album of songs associated with Billie Holiday by trumpeter/vocalist Chet Baker which was recorded in 1965 and released on the Limelight label. Baker pays tribute to Holiday with mellow trumpet solos and occasional vocals. Baker's backed by a full sax section and a four-piece rhythm section that includes pianist Hank Jones; Jimmy Munday contributed the colorful arrangements. Scott Yanow, writing for AllMusic, says "His performance of ten songs associated with Lady Day (most of which he had not recorded previously) is often exquisite."
