The first tune is "Alfie" - the theme tune from the film of the same name, with Michael Caine.

One of Jaco's favourite tunes, which he often included in solo spots.

The second chord sequence is very familiar - but I'm not that much of a beatles fan...:hmm:

This bit went on too long and was very "un-Jaco-like" - in terms of lack of ideas and inspiration...?

the best part of it is that it provides a pretty good idea of how the new squier functions and sounds.

thats true. im thinking of getting one. they do sound pretty nice. i wonder how his slapping affects the board.:hmm:

yeah it was somewhat "un-jaco-like" but it still sounded pretty awesome. loved the ending.

thanks for the replies.
so anyone know the other part?
