Pretty much everything he ever recorded is available for listening.

Such a wide range of music, LOTS of great energy and MUSICALITY
to his playing, chops without the technique overpowering the music
and some really interesting compositions and textures.

Big ears, long fingers, vital spirit.

Musical interplay between Jaco and whoever he's playing with is usually top notch too.

Been a fan of his for a LONG time and will always appreciated him as a great
spirit and extremely gifted and talented musician. AND an extraordinary bass player.

Met him many moons ago (when this was a scarce import) and his energy was kind
and positive and, as he put it he was "doing the best I can".

We are Blessed for his presence and contributions.

Enjoy the journey!
