Heavy Weather Music Book

Sign in to disble this ad
I've been trying like crazy to find a songbook of Jaco's bass lines from Heavy Weather, preferably with tabs.
Anyone know where they sell it? All I can find is "Best of Jaco" and "Essential Jaco" and stuff like that, but I really want the whole album. It's hard to find songs like Havona, Palladium, or A Remark You Made in a compilation book and it's getting frustrating.

There may not be one. I've tried to find music books for Hiroshima and Spyro Gyra, too, and haven't had any luck. There are some general jazz-oriented "fake books" and the like that I've seen, but that's all...not much in general by band for jazz / fusion that I've been able to find. Lots of pop & rock, though. Like you, the only music book I've found is the "Essential Jaco", haven't seen the "Best of Jaco" yet...and had to mail order Essential from amazon!

There is, or was, a book with all the parts put out years ago. I used to have it but, house fires have a way of thinning the library. Look at used book sites or maybe there's a local
college with a decent music library near you.

Alot of the bass parts (not all) for Palladium & RYM are in The World's Greatest Fakebook, and Havona is in New Real Book 1

Not Tabs, but it would be worth your while to at least give the notation a shot.

There's a "best of" transcribed score from Hal Leonard.
http://www.halleonard.com/item_detai...eather+report+

I have the book you're talking about. It's from:

Almo Publications - an affiliate of A&M records
1312 N. La Brea
Hollywood, CA. 90028

The bass line for Havona is not written out. Others are.
If you can't find it, let me know, and I'll get the charts to you one way or another.

Smile How can I get this book?

I also used to own the Heavy Weather book, but no longer do.

How can I get a copy of it? I've been searching online for hours on many used book sites, and only find the "Best of Weather Report" book.

I'm looking for the book with only the Heavy Weather music in it. There was another one with only the Mr. Gone music--anybody know about that one as well?

Thanks!
