Chet Baker: Let's Get Lost
Before you go to see the new Ethan Hawke film about Chet Baker, find a way to watch this 1988 Bruce Weber documentary about Chet. It will break your heart, but you will understand jazz and the creative process on a visceral level. It is extraordinary.

A great song from a jazz singer you've probably never heard of.
