in memory of Jaco

i was lucky enough to share rum and cokes with jaco in deerfield beach, right when word of mouth came out, he'll always be missed.
a really big influence on me since 1979, RIP jaco.

That is a very sad, but true statement....
 
However I believe Jaco will have his place in the history books for his musical contributions and scholars of music will study him long after we are gone.

Don't fix it in the mix ... Fix it in the take!

Absolutely correct.  An incredible player.  It's too bad those "rum and cokes" got the better of him.

His name lives on here.

I find it hard to improve on what he actually did with Weather Report and his big band:

Unfortunately Jaco has a lot of detractors who really aren't familiar with very much of his work.

 In order, then, to discover the limit of deepest tones, it is necessary not only to produce very violent agitations in the air but to give these the form of simple pendular vibrations. - Hermann von Helmholtz, predicting the role of the electric bassist in 1877.

I used to hang out at the Pompano Beach Pier. Jaco would show up and sit in with bands pretty frequently. It's really sad how it all ended. He should still be here.
