Title: Last of the game changers.
Product review: Actually Edward Van Halen was last of the game changers, but we're talking about Jaco and I'm first generation.Word of Mouth is a masterpiece. Zawinul did'nt like what he called Jaco's stock arrangements, but I think that was just sour grapes because Jaco was the star in Joe's band.With Toots Thielman, Wayne Shorter, Herbie Hancock and a cast of jazz monsters, Jaco put together beautiful arrangements that would have made Mancinni and Mingus proud.Just like with Hendrix's guitar, Jaco's bass playing was the least of his gifts.John & Mary is so stellar it still hurts all these years later.This album is full of warmth, passion, color, pain, angst and joy.Big band / punk jazz by maestro Pastorius.Long Live baby !Doug CashMusician / Producer
