I'm literally SPEECHLESS now... Jaco my man R.I.P -_-

[RatchetGUN]

amen... ^_^ such a great musician and human being... R.I.P...

[corcovado33]

As JACO and so many famous artist, people- EMINGWAY, VAN GOGH, MOZART, LIZ TAYLOR, CHURCHILL, NAPOLEON BONAPARTE, MEL GIBSON, ROBIN WILLIAMS, MARILYN MONROE, EDGAR ALLAN POE, AUDREY HEPBURN, MARLON BRANDO, BEN STYLER, CHOPIN, MOLIERE, CARY GRANT, VOLTAIRE etc AND A LOT OF UNKNOWN PEOPLE OF ALL TIMES -of course - I also suffering of bipolars troubles since always

I really can understand so well what kind of nightmare was the end of his life even if bipolarity is different from 1 perso to another

[corcovado33]

I really think - even if Joe ZAWINUL and JACO PASTORIUS are gone away and missing forever...- that WEATHER REPORT was a band, a perfect fusion between very different kind of musicians from everywhere...

It is impossible to separate one musician of this band than the others, each one had his own importance at the time...

The sound' s result, the mixture was totaly unique, colorfull and totaly perfect !!!

The perfect image of diversity, multiplicity and humanity, colors, dreams and voyages...

I love the way Jaco's Fretless sings on this.I have fun playing this on my fretless.

1:31 - 1:36 What crazy timing Zawinul found to put those two chords. Total Genius and master of the timing.

Jaco (Norristown,Philly suburb), Stanley Clarke and Alphonso Johnson (both from Philly) were born in 1951....damn.......it was a very good year !

[gonzalolage1974]

the fretless man, r.i.p.

[magdaszabo]

@jazz4asahel i cannot to this day tell,speak of his death wi/out crying...what a horrible fckng thing, a great musician like that, how he die. it actually totally unbelievable to me. what someone will do. what people do to each other. sad sad sad. jaco. at least u are home now.

[futilityroom]

@Zeppolino100 Yes BUT this is a Joe Zawinul masterpiece.. a perfectly normal family man who lived until cancer took him at 75 years of age.

As great as these cats were,they never let that virtuosity get in the way of the music.The beautiful,glorious music.
