So sad he left us. RIP Jaco and thank you for your beautiful and inspiring artistry.

Except he was real.

nunca me podria aburrir de portrait of tracy

[Christopher Porto]

while it is true that was later in life it was incredibly apparent the man had a death wish. He was incredibly self destructive later in life. I think it was partly from how wanted to be remembered as a legend with part of that including him dying young. Read his biography. It is a great read.

Please don't forget that all of that happened way later in his life. Before that he was a beacon of sobriety

I fell in love with the bass after hearing Stanley Clarke in Return To Forever, then Jaco came on the scene (he was already there on the DL) and blew everything I thought I knew about playing out of the window! There have been a million imitators since (me too) but no one quite like Mr. Pastorious. May his music never rest in peace.

it was an Acoustic 360 amp. they are quite expensive and still considered top quality today

[falloutMAN84]

Does anyone (hopefully) know what amp Jaco is using?

[MrMastrsushi]

i like how at the end he acts as if he didn't just perform a masterpiece!

[DoomCity202]

Hey if people celebrate rotten Ronald Ray Gun and mourn over

that wicked son of a bitch I think its fair to mourn & call the early

death of someone who brought the world beautiful music tragic.

Musicians get a pass for using drugs man...its almost a part of it.

[Ponyboy Joyce]

Awesome. True reverence.
