@TheAmazingUploader You must think slap bass is the epotime of soul. Weather report had no lyrics in there songs so it wasnt a matter of shallow "friday" type subject matter. Manring is a cover artist how in the hell is that substance. Nobody with any sense would put jaco in the company of noodlers like Wooten, Miller and Manring. Jaco's inprov had imensely more feeling than the aforementioned technical players. ***Cringe!!!***
Jaco dealt with 2 large egos in jazz, Shorter, Zawinul, Zawinul said, "three forceful personalities, totally different, nobody giving an inch, yet all together." Your word, "immodestly" is what drove Jaco to the heights of groundbreaking jazz w/electric bass. Bursting my bubble is not the issue, it's looking back in jazz history and realizing the importance of Jaco's contribution and to a much lesser extent Michael Manring. Jaco outdoing Manring is not the issue either.
I disagree, except with "all this compares to Jaco" well it should, as Jaco was the guy who changed the way the bass is played and perceived. Manring was a student of Jaco and Jaco, if alive would most likely like this.
As for Manring being better? well he's better than you or I.
@Wilbursson Jaco still only wrote prententious crap.

No need to be sorry:) Michael is excellent, I tend to like Jaco more, you like Manring more.

@jjaaccoo or, not to burst your bubble, his immodesty would take over and he'd try to outdo Manring, which he may well be able to, or maybe not.
