I believe that was from Jaco's instructional vid.
-
I'll have to get that sometime.
-
You should, It comes with a book that I found very helpful, and watching the vid got me to stop watching The song remains the same, which I was obsessing over. JPJ is incredable. Oh, it seems like sooo long ago. Back when I thought the Fender J was the ULTIMATE Bass.

This post just gave me a new thing to try with my blues band. Like terryc I like to shake things up a bit. Fortunately I have a guitar player and drummer who should be open to and able to handle the variation in style. Thanks for the idea.

Are you sure that clip was from the instructional video? If it's a full band recording then it'll be from the Live in Montreal video which is worth getting hold of at the very least for the extended version of Donna Lee with a superb introduction by bob mintzer.

Graeme,
The picture on the front of the instructional video Modern Electric Bass (http://www.amazon.com/Modern-Electric-Bass-Jaco-Pastorius/dp/B00007D5JQ target=_blank)
appears it's from the same jam.
...and this (http://jazzartists.tv/2009/04/01/jaco-pastorius-john-scofield-kenwood-dennard/ target=_blank) website confirms that also.
Kenwood Dennard is fantastic on drums!!
-
Cool, I'm glad you found that elwoodblue.
-
Yes ,
I have that Instructional video too !
It is an awesome piece of history and a great slice of such an awesome player! BUT__ I always cringe during the scene when Jaco throws his bass to Kenwood Dennard_ LOL ____
-
Finally got round to rewatching the instructional video and I apologise for doubting you guys. However, I will say that the Live in Montreal video is well worth watching to see the chicken played by jaco's full ensemble.
And mehdi, I've just watched your youtube video, very nice ;-)

That video definetely has some good moments,... but its inevitable to see that Jaco was in a bad condition when this was shot. I think it was in 85 or 86, and they pretty much picked Jaco up from the streets. Still there are moments where Jaco's genius shines through despite his struggle and decline. I think the best moment on this dvd is when he plays what they call Jam in E. That stuff is so tight!! The music just flows out of him. He really was one of the greatest.
-
And hey Mehdi, sorry for hijacking this thread. You got a nice sound and nice playing.
Tres bon mon Pote!!

I had the honour of meeting Jaco in the early 1980's when a Drummer that I know who was playing with jaco stopped in at a gig with him that I was playing in San Francisco. At the time I was playing my old 1971 Fender P bass through a Sunn 2000S and a single 18 inch JBL in a Dual throat rear facing horn cabinet. When my Drummer friend introduced him to me ______
my reflex action was just to hand him my Bass_ lol____________!!!!!!
