| | | | Wow, talk about a Jaco clone haha! Seriously, Bireli is freakin' smokin' here. He played those Jaco licks just as Jaco would've played em', In fact I sit here listening to it as I type I could swear I'm listenin' to Jaco. Bireli Lagrene is just a phenomenal musician it seems on which ever instrument he plays, it seems the Jaco tutelage helped him a little on the bass. Whoa. |

Wait......is he a guitarist or a bassist?? Seems he's both! There's a bunch of vids of him playing guitar.

| | The last thing you'll ever see Operator: prophecysound systems | | Join Date: Jun 2002 Location: Tallinn, Estonia | | Very nice playing, to be sure ... but for some reason I am uncomfortable with such Jaco-apeing, in the same way as I feel uncomfortable listening to guitarists that sound remarkably like SRV. Obviously this guy is a very talented musician, but I can't help thinking - thousands of hours spent on practice to sound very much like someone else?!?! I mean, Jaco's son plays bass too and sounds a bit like his Dad, but has his own 'voice' going on.
It's hard to put my finger on the exact qualities involved here....

An interesting tidbit isthat Jaco and him collaborated in the 80s a lot and Jaco gave him bass lessons.
That bass he is playing was a gift. I can't remember if it was Jaco or Jerry Jemmott who gave it to him.
Jaco's first electric was a 68 Jazz with a rosewood neck and block inlays with the pickguard taken off to look like his hero's bass, Jerry Jemmott.
