In a world full of slappers and tappers, Jaco made the bass relevant with old-fashioned fingerstyle and harmonics. Dude was such a tortured poet.

[jacomans]

That is a Jaco signature line, he played it a lot in NyC with his trio.. and on vinyl it’s on the cut of Al Di Meolas Land of The Midnight Sun where Jaco plays on one track.

Guy on the left practices safe bass slapping!

[rogertosney]

Heard this thanks to nic todd my bass teacher when i was 13. Funkiest bass line ever.

[kevinmitchell]

Great presentation of great music with great musicianship 👍 👍 👍

[raymondchollet]

These two are jovial folk, i am also bass player and joyful. I studied and aopreciated jaco since weather report 1980, s

I’ve lost count of number of bassists I’ve played this to and they all end up laughing! It’s so laughably simple you know you’re listening to something great. Pastorius is unfairly maligned for being too ‘busy’, too technical, too many notes. In fact he’s one of the most economical bassists I’ve ever heard. He’s bone idle at times! ‘Come On Come Over’ is Pastorius at his most bone idle. Pure genius. And he very rarely slaps. He once said to Marcus Miller ‘I can play like that but I can’t be bothered!’

I’ve been a drummer and percussionist off and on since I was 12. My 12 year old daughter is taking her first beginner drum lesson this Friday.

My friends said, “she’s going to need a bass player”. Now I have a reason to learn the bass at 64!
🤦🏾‍♂️😂

[fives.]

The Rocco Prestia influence in Come On, Come Over is super obvious but in the most "I'm Jaco, this style is MINE" way lol

[brianhuggins]

The one and only... Offten replicated, never
Jaco, forever in our hearts...

But to all that haven't... Check out his son....
Wow

[raymondchollet]

I am so glad to see him live in montreal canada at the Spectrum 1980, s

[rogertosney]

Although the solo in Weather Reports Cucumber Slumber is pretty slick too

[Spritofjazz]

Is this where I admit I’ve been forever winging that little second lick in the funky bit ?

[sooesoss]

Rocco Prestia bassist for Tower Of Power
This is his style of Funk Finger playing the "Song What is Hip" May he rest in peace..

[robbelk]

The first time I heard this song, I bought punk jazz. 15 years ago... I lost my mind 😂❤❤❤❤

[jamesbrown]

I think it’s probably because I’m a middle aged dork of a white guy with glasses that has played bass since I was 12 years old that binds me so much to these two cats. I smile like this too when I’m playing some that I really feel!

[Praxama]

hahaha this put a big smile in my face

[drbassface]

There is an 1/8 rest on the and of three on the first line😎👍🏻

[Tidozer]

Jaco was the man. Such a shame what happened to him

[NateJackson_]

I only wish that Jaco’s tone had more growl to it. Was a bit heavier
