and is such a great natural actor it makes me wonder why he wasn't in more filmsMusic: Dexter Gordon Blows Hot and Cool, Our Man in Paris, Two Flights Up
Jazz films/documentaries:
Straight, No Chaser, Thelonious Monk
Let's Get Lost, Chet Baker
Portrait of a Jazz Survivor,Art Pepper
You really suggest some great Jazz docs Grin!
"Portrait of a Jazz Survivor" was so well done, I had insights into the complex Pepper character that I didn't get reading his dark but wonderful autobiography "The Straight Life".
is playing at DOC in a few weeks. I'm going to try to get there.

This has never come out on laserdisc or DVD and the VHS tape is out of print and obscenely overpriced as well. Too bad, as it is a great documantery on Chettie. I saw it once at the Brattle theater in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

Thanks. I'll search for it. Funny how I missed it because it is at or near the top of my wish list. Thanks very much.
