Thumbs up

Very cool Steve!

He comes across as a wonderful guy, and man does he have some chops!

I really got lost in the links to the old Jaco video's too!

I looked up a while later at the clock and over an hour had flown by!

Wow! What a player!

He sure does! Sometimes it's just so hard to watch him play. I shouldn't care but it is just confusing to watch. Great clip though!

I have the Bart/Bart thing going in my bass, too. Not a Roscoe, not a 6'er, but at least I'm on the right track.

I've met Jimmy a couple times. He's a great guy. They all are. They actually played a request for me a couple years ago in Minneapolis. It was amazing.

Ah. So that's how, "Take This Job and Shove It" got added to the 'Jackets repertoire.

Sorry. Agreed on all counts about Mr. Haslip. Wonderful guy, great player. I've been honored to shake his hand twice over the years. Here's a blast from the past - one of my all-time favorite cuts:
