The story of a light ray falling from a music note. It's also a tribute to a musician... It's the music of a legend, the portrait of a romance. Not long before his death, on November 25, 1987 Chet Baker plays "I'm a fool to want you" for the camera of a parisian studio.

Chet Baker plows a uniquely individual furrow in the field of jazz. His trumpet playing is beautifully delicate and takes standard ballads into hitherto unexplored emotional territories. Here Chet is accompanied by Michel Grailler on piano and Riccardo del Fra on bass. Two of Chet's admirers also guest star here: Van Morrison and Elvis Costello.
