RoboSlater Musical ideas came naturally to legendary saxophonist Art Pepper, probably more so than any other jazz musician in history. He married his manager Laurie who, like Thelonious Monk's and many other musicians' widows, looked after his basic needs during his years on (and off) the road. You'll see how she might have even extended his life. The film doesn't cover his many years in prison, or his music before he joined that "gated community", just his life since and a few [wonderful] extended jazz performances after his release. Heroin was his drug and it eventually took its toll. He speaks candidly. Film follows the tone of his book. Fascinating, positive. You'll know him like a relative by films end. Appreciate it just for the music, even!
