This is an appearance on Belgian TV.

Does anyone know the date (approx.)?

@wysiwyg248 Hi. I think it was 1985.

“There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. Some kind of high powered mutant never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die.”

I love this performance with all of my heart.

This is one of the most beautiful pieces of music I know.

Look at Jaco. Can't tell whether he's crying or laughing. Soul man.

Thanks Jaco and RIP.

LOOK AT THE SMILE ON THAT MAN'S FACE AT 3:38 ! LOL!! so awesome! beautiful song! I created a much less awesome all-bass version of this song about 3 or 4 years ago. It is on my page.

Wow! What a shame we lost this guy decades too early .... beautiful song ...one of the greats. Ain't Toots just the best at his craft!

[seanmckay6]

They are on the same page the whole time...unbelievable. Improv at it's best!
