I've been trying to play this tune for several years. A lot of people play it like a ballad, but I wanted to try and keep the rhythm that clearly ran through all of Jaco's music.
@goldengab Hi. Thanks for listening. I agree about learning from the track rather than the score. However, i'm playing a lot of classical music at the moment, and learnt this tune years ago. So, I kept the real book sheet there as a reminder. I was especially pleased with the final vamp - I didn't used to play it like that!
I like this very much! It's jazz man! And jaco was a genius of course, like Keith. Nice playing. I try to play by ear mostly, when I get closer and closer without a score is better satisfaction :)
