... and utterly taking the p*ss in a solo...
(hardly surprising this bass ended up in pieces...)
Seriously and with no irony: I think that solo is pretty breathtaking. For all it's flaws, inaccuracies and the state of its maker: It has guts, inspiration, originality and is taking chances in a Hendrix-esque way. Bravo.
And this thread isn't hijacked by Jaco's illness at all, it's a serious and interesting subject. And if Jaco wouldn't find mention in a Jazz Bass thread eventually we would be doing something very wrong here.
