“Charlie Parker heard Chet Baker playing somewhere […] and the legend was that he called Miles Davis and Dizzie Gillespie and said: “ ’Hey, there’s a little white cat out here who’s giving you a lot of trouble’.” The renowned photographer adds that everyone has a story about Chet, cramming his own into a unique documentary which earned him an Oscar nomination. Bruce Weber and his crew tracked the legendary jazz trumpeter and vocalist from one U.S. coast to another, and accompanied him to Europe on what would ultimately be his last tour.
