It is straight
I asked a question.
and that qoute you posted is from my site.
There really is a difference between influenced and inspired.
you have no case.
They are the same thing, if you are listening you are influenced. Might be at subconscious level but it's there.
Oh well going to have to agree to disagree.

I think Jaco is a jerkoff, because of his pompous attitude.
And if you actually looked up my influences, they're not really pentatonic. And as for calling them idols, you make me feel like a heathen. This place is relaxed buddy, calm down.
EDIT: The comments aren't to you Jimmy M, just the fellow you quoted in your post :-D
To this day, I don't understand what people see in The Grateful Dead, but I try to listen to them once a year to see if there's something I'm missing (BTW, haven't found it yet).
What did the Grateful dead fan say after he ran out of dope?
"This music sucks!"

hohoo, you're not far wrong there!
You have fun with that...honestly.....that is the supidest thing ive ever heard.....
Did you meet him?
Didint think so...
Have you listened to his playing enough to respect his talent?
haha...no, because if you had..
You wouldnt have started a thread of which the sole intent is to hate on somebody...
:scowl: :scowl: :scowl: :scowl: :scowl: Wheres the fun, information, tip sharing, etc. in that?...or am i mistaken as to what talkbass is all about?!?!?!
If Talkbass is here to discuss how much we hate awesome bass players...then please send me that memo!
Edit: In retrospect...that sounds a bit harsh........hmm...ok then.....
i actually just saw a thread earlier bashing McCartney and it was real funny. SO TRUE!
Hey Otso..When was the last time you recorded with the Temptations?!?!!?....yeah...thought so....Learn to respect good players...
Hate... LOL! Holy cow - in the same breath - "I am not trolling or trying to flame here, but I hate..."
I said, now - who do... who do ya think you're foolin?
Hate is born 99% out of fear and ignorance. You "don't get" jaco so you hate him? Silly - just plain silly.
You are free to not enjoy his playing or to find the way he chose to live his life to be something that you would not do or approve of - but hate him? What's the use? Does proclaiming your hatred of him actually accomplish anything?
From my end, if exposes you has a person who does not know how to properly deal with your feelings about someone you don't know or understand.
Is it wrong? Who am I to say? I think your time would be better spent either asking questions about Jaco to better understand his technique or other things and trying to figure out if he has anything to offer for you - otherwise, why are you wasting your time and other's time discussing irrational hatred?
And to the dude who wants to lump Henderix into the mix - and McCartney too - people, please. The reason that Jaco, Jimi, and Paul are relevant is because of not only WHAT they did, but WHEN they did it. If you don't recognize the context that surrounded each artist when they presented their special contribution, it is no wonder you make inane comments like, " Is it wrong to hate Jaco Pastorius?"
Not trolling? Come on... That's just like saying, "no offense, but you stink!" Just because you claim not to be trolling does not negate your overt act of trolling.

Wow, I thought my sarcasm would have been more obvious. I'm actually learning some of Jamerson's lines at the moment.
It wasn't obvious to you that he was kidding? Sheesh..., no sense of humor? Dislexic?
He was kidding.
I don't quite understand what you mean by this statement. Could you please elaborate?
With all the other bashing going on it was hard to tell!It wasn't obvious to you that he was kidding? Sheesh..., no sense of humor? Dislexic?
He was kidding.
