Thanks Paul. I'm still enjoying records like 'Live at the Moonlight', and are hooked again on Chet Baker, after a pause of a couple of years. I'll go looking...

The thing is - Jim worked really, really hard, but the conclusion of his book is, that Chet was a lousy musician most of the time, and that therefore we fans...

Hi Cecco, thanks for offering me the lp. But I think a recording of it on cassette or cd will do just as well, and is easier (and cheaper) to post. With Bert,...

Thanks..I joined in the hope I'd find out whatever happened to the Miramax project to make a film of Chet's life....I'm interested in writing a screenplay on...
Phillip - I think you can safely say that Miramax is not interested in making the movie. I believe that they have paid for the rights to make it and use the...

You can make a film, if you don't use books as a basis from which the rights have been sold already. 'Chet Baker' is no one's property, although the Baker clan...
