Description Take a trip through the life and songs of the celebrated jazz crooner with this dazzling musical biography, starring the acclaimed Tim Draxl performing with a full live band.
Chet Baker was the prototype 20th-century cool. His movie-star looks and honeyed vocals won him pop stardom, and his effortless trumpet style earned the respect of the jazz elite; his well-known struggle with drugs brought it all down.
