[spinaker38]

More than 1000000 views!!! That is surprisingly awesome! Thank you guyz, you all show that it is still possible to enjoy and share good music nowadays.

Again sorry for the quality...that was one of my first "video/post" on youtube...

[derhandtrommler]

Jaco was the Hendrix of the electric bass. Case closed.

[rippersk8er]

@derhandtrommler bah... I think Hendrix was Hendrix, and Jaco was Jaco. Both genius. Case closed.

[derhandtrommler]

@rippersk8er It's a euphemism, man. Of course they were both unique and have no musical resemblance to each other. But they each set the standard, by which everyone else is compared. That's all I meant.

[rippersk8er]

@derhandtrommler then i agree.

[MadameMilluna]

28 guys think its too good to be real

[Rejito]

wow , this beat is amazing!!!

[lunalechien]

i think i speak for all of us when i say the best jazz (fingering) bassist that has ever lived is jaco pastorius,ps:the slap one is i think victor wooten or marcus miller or stanley clarke .There are so many good ones

[ZeBratsFRS]

@lunalechien

I gotta notice that mark king is pretty amazing too in slap.

[tomalophicon]

@lunalechien Yeah but slap is so lame.

[tbcass]

@lunalechien I This is what Marcus had to say about slapping (copied from an interview posted on FretlessBass-com)

Marcus Miller: "I use fingers. Sometimes for jazz, I'll mute with my palm and play with my thumb. Every once in awhile I'll slap although I don't love that sound. I'll pull out a pick when the part is in a very low register and I want some extra definition. I did that on Wayne Shorter's "Highlife" and it worked well."

[MetronomeISR]

hearing jaco doing rythem it's like eating desert as main dish, it's good but not satisfied

[derhandtrommler]

@MetronomeISR the word you are looking for is "rhythm". Seeing it grossly misspelled is good but not satisfied.

[PourAnotherIcepick]

you need to credit Bob Herzog in the description or title!

[GaribaldiInTheMaking]

wow an ad on a jaco song! now that's a change lol

[TheChillin1324]

probably one of the best songs every played.... just in general

[gingcrf450]

20 people are deaf, dumb, stupid and probably like Justin Bieber.

This song is like Sunday morning EAR SEX!

[MrVeesworld]

Sounds like Tower of Power!!!

[kingofthestoneage5]

@MrVeesworld Jaco was known to state that Rocco was a big influence on him. What bass player wouldn't state Rocco as an influence?

[MrVeesworld]

@kingofthestoneage5 Exactly, I am from the Bay Area, (San Francisco) so you know I know about TOP.

As a matter of fact, my bass player filled in for Rocco back in 2003/4 when Rocco was sick. His name is Daryl Anders and you can see him on YT.

[murkemmct]

@MrVeesworld TOP u mean like tower of power(im not much of a funk guy) ? im in a youth funk band and the guy who runs it played trumpet on one of there albums. who knows maybe me band teacher guy and ur bassist performed together

[MrVeesworld]

@murkemmct it is very possible. Yes TOP is Tower of Power. Where do you perform or what city you from?

[murkemmct]

@MrVeesworld im from halifax, Canada. the guy who runs my band is a trumpet player named rick waychesko

[andrewbautista23]

my god the vocals, the sax, the trumpet, the bass is on fire!

[drsnobby]

@andrewbautista23 i have this album and let me tell you that the saxaphonist is david sanborn and vocals are sam and dave.get this album listen to"OPUS POCUS" it will blow your mind.

[alancheryl1]

Jaco is incredible, holy smoke

[rohanpogi]

[mcblahflooper94]

Jaco>Wooten>Claypool>Entwistle­>ALLLLLLL

[PvtParts111]

this song is the perfect mix of complete skill and complete groove. It sounds so simple and easy on the ear but dat groove really packs a punch. This shit is not easy to play either.

[TheMSartan]

Is it me or there is a Bass constantly making magic under the voice?

[Tokolation]

Awesome shit!

[AntonioZavatti]

Hello!

[Fjord76]

@BassGuitarGuy128 ears.

[marko92pn]

Can someone upload a better version of this song pls?Thumbs up so ppl can see this, thanks.

[Primussucks81]

I try to incoporate his sound in my band. we play punk music. yes real punk music. not that blink 182 crap everybody claims as punk. the man is a legendary funk master.

[fearcross]

Why do people like my comments for no reason :D I think they can read my mind. This song is awesome :D

[KerryAbernethy]

aaaa love this :D

[ajglaf]

jacgasm... so sweettttttt

[caritoyjames]

porn bass!

[Thunderfingers999]

Unfortunately like most bass players, Jaco had a TEMPER. Comes with the passion!

[democratjoe]

@Thunderfingers999 Most bass players I've met, including myself, are pretty level headed. It's always lead guitarists and singers I've had to watch for that.

[Thunderfingers999]

@democratjoe Very true. Ego LOVES the spotlight. But Jaco was a hothead.

[liamiscooler]

@Thunderfingers999 unfortunately he couldn't help it, he was severely bi-polar and he couldn't control his temper

[buefyYT]

@liamiscooler

But that showed in his music, and wow, it's almost what makes his playing so emotional. its beautiful really.

[liamiscooler]

@buefyYT I couldn't agree with you more, regardless of technical ability, it is feeling that makes a legendary player

[pearldrum2004]

17 people can't Come Over.

[MrBassinyerface]

From one of my favorite all time albums. So great. Even to this day and beyond...always great, timeless music.

[yusifer]

That was liquid sex in music form.

[jamro217]

Although Jaco's influence in music is undeniable, this tune is more of a Tower of Power tribute than a Jaco style composition. Almost could be called "Jaco plays Rocco".

[RATMblink182]

@jamro217 well its true that jaco dug prestia but this has some typical jaco flow in it

[aleksandersucharski]

one of the funkiest tunes of all time, period.

[tornmask]

Funky but Funky baby!  =0]

[jsilence418]

the only Bassists that don't owe something to Jaco, are those that wont admit it!! thanks for posting , this tune always makes me feel good !

[phailez]

@jsilence418 And punk bassists.

[jsilence418]

@phailez lol they don't count, they never count!

[phailez]

@jsilence418 What about double bassists?

[jsilence418]

@phailez what about them ?

[phailez]

@jsilence418 They don't really owe anything to Jaco.

[Redrocker6464]

jazz god!!!!

[00Dakka]

sexy stuff

[MrBassDood]

That's one funkalicious bass line ... Funk it up jaco... funk it up man!!!

[orestis1234567]

amazing...



[Jazzhansolo]

Why are you guys feeding the troll? I just watched a few Jaco vids for the first time and It's on every one of them saying the same stuff. I won't even give It the pleasure of me saying It's name, but seriously, cruise a few vids and see that it's pointless to fight fire with gasoline... a lot of what it's retorting to you, it's already spewed on other Jaco videos to other feeders... for gawd's sake don't send it food, that's just crazy.

[xXdroneXx]

@GaryNull I agree, it is fairly easy to play, but back in 19-whatever all the people thought that it was godly.

Its not that its easy to play, its funk. Its the creation of something that in 3 seconds in your already bobbing your head.

[MrBassakos]

Me: 911?

911: Yes

Me: I'd like to report a-

911: HOLD IT, HOLD IT! We don't care that there is a dislike button!

Me: But its on an Jaco's video!

911: HOLY CRAP!? Help is on the way!

[creamtangerines]

@MrBassakos 15 dislikes. Geez. Totally qualifies as an emergency :)

[jsilence418]

@creamtangerines 15 lady gaga fans disappointed!

[ZappaFan101]

@MrBassakos

Nice. That gave me some lulz

[XSymphony]

@MrBassakos haahaahaha=))))) you just made my day. funniest comment ever

[fearcross]

@MrBassakos You couldnt be more of a poser...

[MrBassakos]

@fearcross could be many things..

[ArseLoad0fMetal666]

@MrBassakos 9/11 isn't funny........

[Steve92crue]

@ArseLoad0fMetal666 he means 911, the emergency phone number, not september 11, aka the bullshit terrorist day. 

[MrBassakos]

@Steve92crue Thats right... I wrote 911, not 9/11.... 

[paddy27398]

@ArseLoad0fMetal666  your retarded

[ArseLoad0fMetal666]

@paddy27398 it was obviously a joke u idiot ROFL

[OmegaBassArg]

@ArseLoad0fMetal666 YOU ARE SO STUPID

[00soup00]

@MrBassakos Fuck up

[GaryNull]

The real title for this song was "Cum, cum all over".

[DancingSpiderman]

@GaryNull Yeah."Cum, cum all over" should be used as the soundtrack for a vid starring Gianna Michaels and Mandingo. That would make sense.

[Josezitoreq]

@DancingSpiderman So you know them

[GaryNull]

this bass line is recorded way too loud for this song.

[Magniumman]

@GaryNull its supposed to be, its jacos band. jaco plays the bass. Hes not going to have a band and hide behind everyone else and call it his band.

[GaryNull]

@Magniumman That is poor logic for "making music". It's all about the end result. The mix is pretty bad.

[Magniumman]

@GaryNull once again, the bass is supposed to stick out. his band members play for jaco. if they played for the drummer, Bobby Colomby, then the drums would stick out more than everything else. The mix is great. + I dont see you being called a bass virtuso. you dont know much.

[GaryNull]

@Magniumman fair enough, . . I guess I meant that "bass line" should not be the main point or theme of this song. If he wants the bass to stand out, play something that is worth having the volume pumped up for. I remembering "learing" this song back in 1978 and wasn't even impressed with it back then. That's just me.

[Magniumman]

@GaryNull I agree, it is fairly easy to play, but back in 19-whatever all the people thought that it was godly.

[pretorious700]

@GaryNull what a douche...that's just you

[GaryNull]

@pretorious700 nice comments . . go back to what you do best,  .. raping 13 year old girls.

[CRAZYGROUCHO]

funky-fusion rules!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[spinaker38]

Please...tell me the name of your rock band...

[MyArsene]

@spinaker38 Weather report :p

[MVEditor]

How is my favorite rock band influenced by this crap?

Disgusting.

I gave it a chance and Jazz = Junk = Jaco

[smccoli230]

@MVEditor

Why is it disgusting? Please, elaborate.

[a1gold174]

And who is your favorite band to be influenced by this "crap."

[MichRockHop81108]

@MVEditor wow

[mryellow123]

@MVEditor dumb

[jimineedles]

@MVEditor dickhead

[buefyYT]

@MVEditor excuse me? hahaha

[spinaker38]

Here is the picture link mate ;)

[Pastorius333]

Yes, you did respond to one of the messages I sent, but you did NOT respond to the one where I compiled a long list of video-links you liar( which is the message in question here). And about Jaco not being well known outside jazz and bassist-circles: Lady Gaga is one of the most famous singers in the world right now. Does that mean that she is one of the best? It is plain stupid to use level of fame to measure talent, because sadly those two factors are very seldom related in todays music-world.

[smccoli230]

@Pastorius333

Well... she's actually a really good singer and classically trained... So... Sorry? I don't appreciate her pop music, but you just made a boo-boo, sir.

[fendermaxime]

dabadadaba

[angelo42400]

ca c est vieux mais qu est ce que c est bon merci jaco

[ReactorUkraine]

hell fucking yesssssss!!!!!!!!!!

[eddynaco]

I feel like Jaco was like reincarnated in me. He was a genious but I think I embodied the true genious of his music after his death. Once you hear me play you will understand the real feel behind this bass format.

[rml5039]

@eddynaco a little presumptuous no?

[emosdieslow]

@rml5039 He's not serious. Watch him play and you'll see it's a joke.

[TheStarfox567]

Jaco is one of my favourite bass players along with Mark King, Bernard Edwards, Geddy Lee and John Paul Jones.

[Diskozado]

people say only black people have a soul to play bass and it's supraising many people thumbs up that reaction and I think thean don't you never lising to Jaco Pastorius

[gleventhal]

@Diskozado Only ignorant fools say that. No people who I hang out with think that. I have met plenty of black people with no rhythm and some of the funkiest people I know were white. The biggest bane to funkiness is the thought that you aren't born to be funky.

[eddynaco]

want to play better than Jaco? go buy my videos!

[MrLloydmajor]

I am sorry to hear that "JACO" was closed minded. Or maybe he could not slap and used that as a "DEFENCE MECHANISM" towards the guys who could? Not a put down, just something to think about.  PEACE BUMPZILLA

[spinaker38]

Guyz, i really have to say thank you for all these viewing...this makes me very proud that soo much people really appreciate good music and real talent...

Thx again...

[Batoo21]

@spinaker38 cheers Dude:) from bassist ofcourse :) from Poland ofcourse:)

[jazzmelodicminor77]

@spinaker38 do u know where can i find the first image of the video? i love it!

[cabritex]

@spinaker38 thks for the videos! say good music, jaco pastorius, jeff beck, herbie hancock, maceo parker... so many

[gyspy724]

No one can compare with Jaco. :)

[joelliotjake1]

@gyspy724 Amen

[Mikelinho108]

I can't resist to take my bass after listening to him =P

[IronManFranco1992]

man he is the best bassist ever. i used to like cliff burton and steve harrison but this man surpases them both

[KlasseKolja]

God of Bass, yes! He is the bass!

[josebuencamino]

535,533 views when I got here. Creepy.

[obeolojumeji]

This song sounds like there's a heavy Tower Of Power influence.

[joelliotjake1]

@obeolojumeji i think brecker is in there somewhere

[Jackalope40]

@obeolojumeji ...Tower of Power's horn section play on this tune... =)

[saxronin1]

being a saxophoneplayer i grew up listening to Jaco ,and digging him so well.

[Jackalope40]

@saxronin1 ... Jaco played sax, too... =)

[06wraightm]

Its all about the groove baby!!!

[muddamongmen]

Nothin' could/can touch that man. RIP

[CandyDiceStarr21]

My favorite song by him, just listen to the music, its as every instrument becomes one....love him

[m4rtin0m1d1]

Epic..

[mrmonkey14]

Jaco is beyond classic.

[popliphaha]

This guy is nearly as good as Mark King

[jpreel]

@popliphaha Almost as good as Mark King...LOL! no disrespect to Mr King because i love his playing, but buddy, you're talking about Jaco and that's a-whole-nother level my friend... thanks for coming out!

[popliphaha]

@jpreel I was joking!! I saw Level 42 in 1981 and they were good, but someone should've cut Marking's thumbs off! Jaco is God!

[VUPdingCLICK]

@popliphaha mark king IS bloody good though-but all that slappin' and poppin'-i agree about the thumbs-someone give him a pick for fucks sake.....

[VUPdingCLICK]

@popliphaha ......mark king's-superb,but jaco was better......(oh,yes he was!)

[Skinhitta]

Tower Of Power frontman guestin on vocals?

[MikeHF]

@Skinhitta No, Sam and Dave

[cardhang]

@MikeHF No, just sam moore, no dave

[MikeHF]

@cardhang  Yes its Sam and Dave.
