What a beautiful piece. What a beautiful man. What a vulnerable song. My name is Mary Stroughton. I'm going to finish my tea and sit back and listen to this wonderful masterpiece.
Rarified is the air where a musician can take a little masterpiece from a great composer like Michel Colombier and, with profound simplicity and tenderness, make it his own. An unforgettable tune, one that conjures hope and regret, and the profound mark on music Jaco possessed that will certainly stay on loan with us and the generations that will follow us, as well. WE were the lucky ones though, to have lived in his time and to have witnessed his genius first hand! Thanks for posting this! :)
I think you underestimate the work of Michel Colombier (when you say "little masterpiece") I am sorry to say that, but that tune would have existed without Jaco Pastorius, even if it is obvious that Jaco adds a lot to the interpretation and that the record would have been different without him. The work on sound, timbres and string arrangements is very precise, delicate and more complex than it seems in the first place. You can find also some melancholy and profundness that is already present in Colombier's previous work (like for instance on Emmanuel on the Wings LP), which is clearly coming from his own life story and personal musical universe. It is also a bit simple to give all the greatness to Jaco, considering that Colombier plays all the keyboards on this one, that he wrote every note of it and also considering the great personnel on this LP (Steve Gadd, Herbie Hancock, Michael Brecker, etc.). I still love Jaco's part on this one, but i am a bit sad to remark that composers are often underrated, barely mentioned, especially on RUclips where most of the time, they are not even credited. Musical interprets are part of music, but composers are at least an equivalent part of it, if not the most important part of it.
@@niceanddestroyed But make sure you recognize Pastorius's genius wasn't just his bass contributions but his ability for composure! Make no mistake Michel collaborated on this piece with Jaco! If for nothing else the time signatures are pure Jaco!
Love this music so much! Michael Colombier with the best like Jaco! So sad all this greatness gone! Love them so much!RIP all of you! Michel, Jaco and Michael!
So lyrical and with so much depth and feeling. I love listening to this song at 2:00am.. Deep into the night. @Mary..To echo what others have wrote.. Your fathers music has enriched my life so much..You should be immensely proud. Btw, I love the song John and Mary..
I was listening to some Jaco today which made me come on here, and now I've just watched this superbly made video to accompany Jaco's wonderful music. I feel blessed that his music touches my heart.
I also discovered this performance a few seconds ago...had never heard it before; it's very meditative and romantic...oh yeah, the spirit of Jaco lives on!!!!
This piece💫 Somewhere on earth and out of the earth. This tone of Jaco where the magic in reality and this place is dreamland. He must still be playing somewhere there above the sky.
Hoy 14 de noviembre es el aniversario del fallecimiento de Michel Colombier. Un compositor y arreglador exquisito. Este tema es una obra de arte dedicada a Jaco. Mi respeto y admiración. Siempre presente en su memoria.
This piece is my favourite tune, where all i do as an musician come from. I heard this tune on a record my friend had for many years ago, late eightis. For shure my favourit bassplayer. Gonna by this record on vinyl, if i can get it. Thanks Mr. Pastorius🙏💞
The greatest bass player ever to walk this planet
Jaco Pastorius’ had tremendous facility, but also as your hear in “Dreamland”, great heart. Thank you Jaco.
This is what happens when a man named Jaco touches his bass. No one will come close! God Bless Forever!
Que buen comentario
So beautiful music. Jaco´s bass goes right to my heart! No one can ever play like he did! Jaco4Ever!
What a beautiful piece. What a beautiful man. What a vulnerable song. My name is Mary Stroughton. I'm going to finish my tea and sit back and listen to this wonderful masterpiece.
He did not write it though, even if he plays it beautifully.
Makes me wish I had a fretless bass.

Daniel Volpini! Yo soy amigo de Hugo Villarreal y fui un par de veces a tu casa a ver ensayos de tu banda, espero que estés bien! Un abrazo!!!
Sadly both gone, I still go back to this lovely tune with thanks to them for having left it with us...
El Maestro Pedrito Aznar debe adorar esta canción.
God rest his beautiful, beautiful soul...
Rips my heart apart...I can only imagine what Jaco would have done for and with music and bass had he not been robbed of life. God bless his soul.
Beautiful, So Beautiful!
Oooooh a performance I havent heard before, really beautiful!!!!!!
