  Imagine my surprise when I saw this on my feed.  I was one of probably 30 bass players in the room seeing this go down live.  I was 18 yr old attending  BIT and this was one of the highest highlights of my time there. ThankYou YouTube algorithm!!!

  It was around that time that we would pick up dysfunctional Jaco at Hollywood Park and take him home to his wife. I was a Miami drummer saw him up and down at musicians exchange in Ft.lauderdale he was cool he loved jamming.

  JACO PASTORIUS IS THE GOAT! &nbsp;He opened up the world for all bass players during his time and after his time. &nbsp;He was an innovator and he changed the course of music. &nbsp;He is still influencing and inspiring bass players coming up and musicians in general to this very day.<br><br>Le😎
