CHET

Happy Valentine's Day, Gentle Readers.

I can't get through this day every year without bringing up the memory of a gentle genius who could not resist the lure of heroin.

In the end it killed him.

But before he left us he made Valentine's Day his.

Chet Baker.

He was an extraordinary talent. Tragic life but a great musical legacy.

Chet Baker was a great musician - I love his version of that song.
Happy Valentino to you and SWMBO!
