Chet Baker
Chesney Henry "Chet" Baker Jr. (December 23, 1929 – May 13, 1988) was an American jazz trumpeter and vocalist.

Let's Get Lost (1988 Film)
''Let's Get Lost'' is a 1988 American documentary film about the turbulent life and career of jazz trumpeter Chet Baker written and directed by Bruce Weber. The title is derived from the song " Let's Get Lost" by Jimmy McHugh and Frank Loesser from the 1943 film '' Happy Go Lucky'', which Baker recorded for Pacific Records. Synopsis A group of Baker fans, ranging from ex-associates to ex-wives and children, talk about the man. Weber's film traces the musician's career from the 1950s, playing with jazz greats like Charlie Parker, Gerry Mulligan, and Russ Freeman, to the 1980s, when his heroin addiction and domestic indifference led to a relocation to Europe. By juxtaposing these two decades, Weber presents a sharp contrast between the younger, handsome Baker — the statuesque idol who resembled a mix of James Dean and Jack Kerouac — to what he became, “a seamy looking drugstore cowboy-''cum''-derelict”, as J. Hoberman put it in his ''Village Voice'' review. ''Let's Get Los ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
