I hadn't realized that either! This is especially interesting to me because I performed two of his songs in front of my school today, and I hadn't even realized that this is the anniversary of his death.

Thanks for pointing this out to me, I feel like I've paid a tribute to Jaco somehow.

I just bought a fretless today! What a coincidence.

If I look at the replies at TB I'd say that his legacy is still alive and kicking.

RIP Jaco

I among many others am grateful for the time that we had you. You opened the door for so many that came after you; a door few knew could even exist, much less be able to open it. We are eternally in your debt.

Be at rest...

Happy birthday Jaco. I wish I could've seen you play live; but one day I will.

Tell Jimi and Bonzo that I said "Hi!".

Ooops!!! Man, do I feel stupid. That's what putting in a 12 hour day at work will do.

Thanks for correcting me,
