| | | I assume you are talking about the 'Shadows and Light' DVD. Great playing, but don't you just want to slap the director...every time Jaco goes into some amazing groove or fill, the video fades to a wolf running around in snow, etc.  |

And I totally agree....director / editor must be fresh out of film school....and forgot to listen to the teachers note..."Show what they want to see"
1st time I watched it I thought it was ok, but now that I am disecting the performance....it annoys me big time.

| | | | I agree. I think it's Jaco at his best. Brilliant. Who today could have taken his place and played so with such groove? |
