[Dixielandjazz] Could Chet Baker get lost?

[Mike Durham]

This tune, sung by Chet, is currently being used nationally as the track to 
a TV commercial in the UK (for a supermarket chain's own-brand clothing): 
interesting/ironic that jazz -both traditional and modern - is quite 
frequently used as music on the commercials but almost never features in the 
programming!!

p.s. Also ironic that the lyric refers to lovers stealing away to be on 
their own, while in its drug-related sense as a synonym for 'wasted' it 
applied in spades to Chet himself.
