xilddx Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Anyone seen it yet? How humdrum is it? Is it actually ace? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drax Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Gone from Dec 14 to May 15. Got a bit boring waiting. I know the production team are excellent, but knowing the Jaco story, wonder if it will the old 'flawed genius, tragic end' story we've all seen about so many people before. Hopefully I'm wrong.

timmo Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 Perhaps they bought this to make it really authentic, and needed to raise the cash to buy it. You can have has many props as you like, but to make it real, you need authentic items http://www.ebay.com/itm/JACO-PASTORIUS-JAZZ-BASS-1975-FENDER-FRETLESS-ORIGINAL-/151031567068?

toneknob Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 The movie's on at the Barbican during London Jazz festival.

I thoroughly enjoyed it, it's made me remember just how much I have enjoyed the great man and his music. It's a highly compelling and nicely produced documentary, intercut with footage and interviews. I doubt if it adds much to the story for the hardcore Jaco fanatic, but it is intriguing to watch his friends, family and fellow musicians recount the tale in their own words. If you like Jaco, go and see it. I'm off to listen to Word of Mouth again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
such Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 I listened to "Word Of Mouth" on my way to the cinema That album has been important to me, found it in a window of a secondhand book shop in Poland soon after I started playing bass as a young hardrocker, and remembered that someone recommended the name. First jazz album in my collection, probably far from usual "gateway" choices Great documentary. Managed to have a brief chat with Janek Gwizdala before the screening Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toneknob Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Really enjoyed the screening last night. Some very difficult viewing in places though. I stayed for most of the credits, and spotted quite a few names in the "thanks for their time" list who didn't appear in the movie, Nick Beggs for example. Is there going to be a "director's cut" with the added material? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spongebob Posted November 17, 2015 Author Share Posted November 17, 2015 Amazon UK lists the DVD as 'unavailable', but the US variant shows a release date of 27/11. Wonder when it'll hit the UK? I'll certainly be getting my sweaty palms on one as soon as! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
