Tribute to Jaco Pastorious

Jaco Pastorious passed away 28 years ago from a brain hemorrhage while he was in a coma. Something caused by an altercation with a bouncer. Mostly known as a jazz bassist he is best known for his work in Weather Report and with Pat Metheny and Joni Mitchell.

Here is a bass solo called "Portraits of Tracy" to start off the tribute...




Anyone who follows may have noticed I have a lot of respect for Joni Mitchell so this is probably a great time to visit their catalog together...the tune is "Coyote"


Here he is with Pat Metheny.."All The Things You Are",,


Have to include something from Weather Report..."A Remark You Made"


Celebrating the short lived life and career of Jaco Pastorious...
