And the response is "Eh....whatever." Amazing.

[color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Jaco's best, if not some of THE best bass playing anyone has ever recorded.[/font][/color]

Really!? - I always thought it was a waste of Jaco. And I find ADM's compositions a bit rambling. Each to his own - I'll stick with the Metheny/Mitchell/Zawinul/solo versions of Jaco which are the best IMHO.

Another early favourite: Mike Stern 'Goodbye Again'

I bought this vinyl LP on it's release in 1986 and it's still one of my favourite albums.

I don't think that Mike Stern has ever bettered it plus you get the bonus of Jaco on one track.

I went to see Preston Glasgow Lowe recently in Hexham. Great gig. Kevin Glasgow is a member here and a player of emence ability.

That drumming is insane....

Sort of a drum 'n' bass groove...

Scott Devine's has done a pretty nifty tune in this vein too:

UZEB always felt like me to be proof of the idea that technique without passion, flair and creativity was a pointless endeavour. They can play their asses off but I hear no beauty or warmth in it. Fusion for mathematicians.

I agree with most of that but i was one of the fortunate few to hear them in the very small Cellar Bar at the Bracknell Jazz Festival in 1981. They were amazing and probably the unexpected highlight of the weekend for those present. Their later CDs were much slicker than that evening.

Thanks for the JLP clips above. My attention was grabbed by the recent transcription of "The Struggle Of The Turtle To The Ocean (part 3)" that appeared in Bass Player Magazine...
