At the time he seemed so old, the recent passing of Liam Payne who at 31 is being treated by the media as not far out of childhood, perhaps brings a little perspective to Jaco’s death also 🙏


By which I mean that at 36 - and despite all he achieved - he was still a young man, and died at a time when addiction was not understood and treated in the same was as it is today

 

RIP Jaco 🙏

His first album still takes my breath away 30 years after I heard it. Electric bass playing was changed forever by it, from expectations of what was possible technically to the idea that bass guitar can be a legitimate lead instrument. He and his style are cliches for a reason
