onehappybunny Posted July 28, 2007 Posted July 28, 2007 Just listening to some MP3's of the great man playing (solo - no other instruments, kindly provided on another thread) when my wife turns round and says 'is that you playing?' Ha! Ha! If only! Now, I ought to qualify this by saying that I'm barely competent on the bass, my wife knows nothing about music, even less about bass playing and was not concentrating while reading the paper at the time... but it made me feel good Quote

The Funk Posted July 28, 2007 Posted July 28, 2007 I had a similar experience when I was a teenager hanging out a friend's house. I'd just bought the first Jaco album and put it on, trying to play along. My friend's dad walked in while [i]Kuru/Speak Like A Child[/i] was on and said "oh, is that your band's demo?". Quote
