| 1. |  | Jaco Pastorius by Jaco Pastorius Price: $10.99 Customer Review:  Jaco opens his self-titled disc with a shot across the bow of all bassists and bass fans. His "Donna Lee" (with Don Alias on percussion) solo is the most famous song on this disc. The soul vocal song "Come On, Come Over", seems out of place on this disc. It's fine, but doesn't really fit in.... |

| 2. |  | Punk Jazz: The Jaco Pastorius Anthology by Jaco Pastorius Price: $24.99 Customer Review:  It's Jaco; what more can I say? Live or studio, the sound is excellent, and the chops are clean and impressive. Primo. |

| 3. |  | The Essential Jaco Pastorius by Jaco Pastorius Price: $22.99 Customer Review: For the first-time Jaco listener. Any Jaco-phile worth his or her salt should have the albums these tracks were taken from. |

| 4. |  | Word of Mouth by Jaco Pastorius Price: $11.98 Customer Review: i'll keep my comments brief because the positive reviews describe this album wonderfully - buy it now! we lost a true musical genius with jaco's tragic passing and, contrary to one negative review, THIS ENTIRE ALBUM is a jaco tour de force; the bassist's primary role is to support the music ("women... |

| 5. |  | The Birthday Concert by Jaco Pastorius Price: $11.98 Customer Review:  I don't understand the reviews of this album. Jaco was an amazing jazz bassist. But he is so overshadowed by all the brass instruments on this album that the end result is painful to listen to. I counted on the CD insert four trumpets, four sax, four trombones, plus a french horn or two. I doubt he... |

| 6. |  | Word of Mouth Revisited by Jaco Pastorius Big Band Price: $18.98 Customer Review: I liked the Bass Playing but I thought the band did not really swing that hard. But nice to hear Jaco's Music. A true innovator and nice to hear it no matter who plays it. But the band sort of sounded like good reader's but not confortable with the tunes. The Bass Playing is top notch. This cd could... |

| 8. |  | Invitation by Jaco Pastorius Price: $15.98 Customer Review: This is a great album, though a little short since it was originally a vinyl release. I actually prefer the Birthday concert a bit more since the playing was a little hotter and looser. A definite must have. |

| 9. |  | Jaco by Pat Metheny, Bruce Ditmas and Paul Bley Jaco Pastorius Customer Review: I am a bass player of over 30 years, and a Jaco fanatic. Of Jaco's unfortunately short career, and even shorter period when his greatness peaked before the drugs and fame of Weather Report (in combo with other factors)began his tragic spiral downward, this is some of the greatest and most important... |

| 10. |  | The Word Is Out by Jaco Pastorius Big Band Price: $18.98 Customer Review:  This Jaco Pastorius Big Band recording is very much a straight-up homage to the Greatest Electric Bassist and his incredible contribution to modern jazz. If you are a fan of Jaco's music and sound, this is almost essential. I am a deep fan of Jaco, Weather Report and all the rest, so to come across... |

| 11. |  | Honestly: Solo Live by Jaco Pastorius Customer Review: This was one of the first times I'd really sat down and experienced what Jaco was all about, and it blew away every notion I'd previously held about the Bass, or any solo instrument! As long ago as the mid 70's he was harnessing the deep funk and harboring mysterious grooves with that loop during... |

| 13. |  | Live in New York City, Vol. 2: Trio by Jaco Pastorius Customer Review: Jaco...Hiram Bullock...Kenwood Dennard...man, what a trio. Makes all other (n'yuck n'yuck) "power trios" - and you know who I'm talking about here - all sound like teenaged boyz cranked up after listening to "Highway to Hell" or something equally mono-toned. With but one...well.."caveat": Jaco,... |

| 14. |  | Live in New York City, Vol. 7: History by Jaco Pastorius Customer Review: Although this series came in for some severe scrutiny as bootlegs and bad sound quality, it matters not to me! I never got the chance to experience Jaco live, and being a player myself, I relish any type of chance to hear him. For a trio Setting, they don't half fill out the place! |

| 15. |  | Stuttgart Aria by Bireli Lagrene with Jaco Pastorius Customer Review: I ususally listen to it - together with Heavy n Jazz ( which is, admitedly - better [ if very different in style... ], either b4 - to get myself in the mood - or after, to relax... Bireli's playing here is Superb throughout, & it's only the material that keeps it from getting 5... |

| 17. |  | Live in New York City, Vol. 4: Trio 2 by Jaco Pastorius Customer Review: That Obi guy was right when he said these are only for die hards, and right on when he says it's all about hearing Jaco in the latter stages and getting other glimpses of his style. Where he gets off saying that Kenwood Dennard is not in the super league of drummers, and hence, uninspiring to... |

| 19. |  | Modern Electric Bass, Revised Edition (Book & CD) by Jaco Pastorius Price: $24.95 Customer Review: First of all, I'm not a die-hard Jaco fan. Hell, he isn't even in my personal top 10 list. So my reason for giving this 5 stars is not "because it's Jaco"; it's because this package contains a WEALTH of bass knowledge and exercises designed for the non-beginner, jam packed into a 36 page book and... |

| 23. |  | Les Incontournables by Jaco Pastorius Price: $14.98 Customer Review: The songs were almost all available, but most are out of print, or only available from expensive Japanese import discs. Over all, the quality is phenomenal and the selection is good. A worthy piece of collection... |

| 24. |  | Under the Influence from Quartz Price: $16.98 Customer Review:  I really like this album but I was horrified to open it and discover that it's not a silver, factory-pressed CD but a CD-R! I can't rate it more than 1 star for such a dishonest ruse. Amazon and the aker should state right up front what this actually is. CD-Rs are more susceptible to heat and... |

| 25. |  | Twins Live in Japan 1982 by Jaco Pastorius Big Band Price: $63.98 Customer Review: I almost rated this recording a 4 because of the 20+ year old recording technology. But then I listened more seriously and was truly taken back with the fun roller coaster ride that Jaco and his 20 piece band took me on. With players like Don Alias on Percussion, Randy Brecker on Trumpet, Peter... |

| 26. |  | Live in New York City, Vol. 3: Promise Land by Jaco Pastorius Customer Review: Jaco Pastorius, bassist and revolutionary, reached lofty heights of greatness and virtuosity before plummeting from that peak. As Pastorius's life went on, he sank further and further into depression and his bipolar disorder, and his playing suffered notably. Alas, this bootleg recording from the... |

| 27. |  | Live in New York City, Vol. 5: Raca by Jaco Pastorius Customer Review: You set your hand down right in the middle of a ring of water from your beer glass on the table in front of you. You can feel the claustrophobia of the room and breathe the smoke in the air. The stage is not ten feet in front of you, filled by four musicians' bodies and their instruments -- Jaco... |

| 28. |  | Twins Live in Japan 1982 by Jaco Pastorius Customer Review: Bassist Jaco Pastorius formed this big band for a 1982 world tour, which had some magical performances and incredible frustrations away from the stage. The band ultimately imploded due to the deteriorating health of Pastorius - who threw his bass into Hiroshima Bay, along with exhibiting other... |

| 29. |  | Heavy 'n Jazz by Jaco Pastorius Customer Review: I agree with previous reviewer that this is one "for those in love with Jaco's music". It certainly is not first-rate Jaco. Nevertheless, second-rate Jaco still stands as unique and worthwhile. After collecting all his earlier studio stuff I bought this and was disappointed. More recently I have... |
