A group of Baker fans, ranging from ex-associates to ex-wives and children, talk about the man. Weber’s film traces the man’s career from the 1950s, playing with jazz greats like Charlie Parker, Gerry Mulligan, and Russ Freeman, to the 1980s, when his heroin addiction and domestic indifference kept him in Europe. By juxtaposing these two decades, Weber presents a sharp contrast between the younger, handsome Baker — the statuesque idol who resembled a mix of James Dean and Jack Kerouac — to what he became, “a seamy looking drugstore cowboy-cum-derelict,” as J. Hoberman put it in his Village Voice review.

Depuis plus de vingt ans, le rap n'a cessé de prendre de l'ampleur : cette musique dont le grand public découvrit l'existence dès 1979 avec le tube de Sugarhill Gang Rappers' delight est devenu un genre majeur, infiltrant peu à peu les hit parades du monde entier et les habitudes vestimentaires de la jeune génération. Cependant, dans l'ombre des rappers occupant le devant de la scène musicale se trouvent les DJs. Ce documentaire, ponctué d'interviews d'Afrika Bambaataa et de GrandMixer DXT, retrace l'histoire de ces artistes, des années 70 à nos jours, et en particulier des experts du scratch, indissociable du phénomène hip-hop.
