Wonderful Should-Have Album - The personnel on this album are simply many of the very very best studio and cameo musicians on the planet at the time. Perusing the back cover will knock your sox off. Tom Scott, Larry Carlton, Michael Brecker, on and on, plus the wonderful Jaco Pastorius playing in top studio form on numerous cuts. Wow, really great stuff. ...Got the vinyl myself in 78 or 79 and now look for the CD.
great old times - guy s this is the bollock s ! a beautiful album first heard in the 70 s . i was involved in west end theatre at the time and all the muso s were blown away !!!
At last! - This is one of the biggest possible surprises for me (concerning music, of course!). The fusion record with one of the most stunning and touching appearances of Jaco (Dreamland is one of the most beautiful tunes ever written!) is available on CD. I only can subscribe to everything David Dunn, the other reviewer, has already written, including the endless search in music stores in different countries to replace the battered and only cassette copy being on the verge of self destruction all those years! I haven t even heard the new mix, cause I m just about to order the CD, but one thing s for sure, as we say in Germany: This is like christmas and eastern at one day! To everybody who knows that masterpiece: Congratulations to us and let s see what they did to improve the guitar sound, haha! Greetings to David Dunn, isn t that peculiar and fascinating to share the same love and taste living on the opposite ends of the world?
Never Thought I d Hear It Again - every music shop i visited and searched through in Europe,Australia and New Zealand failed to come up with the c.d ofMichel Colombierso i could not beleive my goodfortune when i spotted it on Amazon. This is truly one of the best melodic jazz/quasi classical albums ever.When you pick a cd of the best musicians in the world you know their performance will be great but what is unknown is the quality of the compositions. Michel Colombier has some of the best musicians in the worldrecording marvelous compositions.In particular Jaco Pastorius plays with such sensitivity and note choice on the tracks Dreamland and Birdsong that one is left in a complete state of calm. This cd also features the great skills of Larry Carlton,Peter Erskin,Steve Gadd,Herbie Hancock,Lee Ritenour,Tom Scott,Michael Rrecker and the London Symphony Orchestra. Anyone who is a fan of this group of performers should,without question, buy this c.d even if the track previews are unavailable.
