Jaco...my student/friend back in 1968. He had been a drummer with a rock band in Hollywood, Fl....but, now...he wanted to learn bass music. 1st, it was on an acoustic 3/4 Kay Bass, but after he moved in with my family in late 1968....he switched to electric bass. Later, living about a mile from my home in Lighthouse point, he in southern Deerfield Beach , we were in constant connection....especially when his band was invited to Havana, he got confused as to how to properly play a TRIBUTE to the USA. So, we rehearsed several American Classics, and he finally picked one....I think it was "America The Beautiful"....solo on the electric bass. It smoked the Cubans!!
Hiram's Solo: 1st sequence - groovy jazz funk, 2nd sequence - elephant in the exosphere, 3rd sequence - crack cocaine. There is no better recorded guitar solo than this.
keep listening to this...as it's so full of invention and ability! Jaco and Hiram lock-step and then drifting off into counter point, ethereal pleasure and creativity... they're having a blast in Heaven for sure!
Hiram was a smokin' soloist back then. Saw him with Bob James and he ran down the center aisle toward the stage, playin' the hell out of the guitar and rolled up onto the stage never missing a beat!! Nice to see Bob had him back for a reunion on a recent album.
can really tell who's a bassist round here ;) this is an amazing recording, everyone is on fire. the Guitar on the head and the three sections of the solos are refreshing.
I LOVE Jaco! I'm wondering why after TWELVE years this finally showed up? I thought I've seen/heard all of his vids/live stuff but things keep coming up!
Wow, can you believe the distorted sound of his bass beginning at 10:47, KILLER, it's hard to believe I recorded this on my Sony Walkman. I guess if this is a bootleg then I'm a bootlegger, HA!
Yes you can. I recorded this on my Sony Walkman at the club Seventh Ave. South. The date was December 13th, 1985. Five years later I put it on a CD titled Pastorius Live in New York City, subtitle "PUNK JAZZ"
I'm quite cynical about people on the internet who say they're a certain someone, but something tells me this one is the real deal. Nice to cyber meet you, Neil. Your recordings are pure gold...as you most surely know.
Well, you were so polite in asking for the date, I thought I'd fill you in. Actually in the 32 years since I recorded it, and 27 years since I shared it with the public, I have not entered into any public discussions regarding it. I agree with you, "pure gold," where I disagree, "they're not my recordings, they're yours."
I heard him do "Teen Town" with Weather Report. Recently I heard Marcus Miller perform it and he added some other things to it and did it a lot cleaner, but with as many harmonics. I've tried to play it and found it difficult if even for the entrances. I'm always sloppy. Practice, Practice!
I checked out your channel and I was surprised: NO VID of you being better than Jaco! I was highly expecting that, you should do some uploads, I can't wait! greetings
ive always liked this whole album 'punk jazz' alot---so I looked at the musicians on it---lol it turns out my fiance's 'sperm donor' (runaway deadbeat father) was the sax player on this album lol- small world.
I find these later recordings without Zawinul's ridiculous synth patches most satisfying. He still has his chops (how could he lose them?). Zawinul was great but just was too early before the dual oscillator polyphonic synth had come of age. Thin, whiny. He knew what was coming but he was ahead of the curve.Tragic. On all accounts. God bless these last men.
Enregistrement sur bandes, mais le son est top, tip top même, merci à ............Neil Weiss pour la production, "Engineered and mastered" par Gene Paul et Scott Paul au D.B. Plus, sans oublier Kenwood Dennard à la batterie et encore une fois Hiram Bullock dans cette version TRIO du volume 2, dispo sur vol 1 mais ca reste une version TRIO même avec la bande au complet dans le club so ! : ))
Love the drumming guitar. Jaco is from somewhere else ! My ears are fuckn happy Holy shit. Set aside the stupid goat thing. Jaco is an absolute master. Mutha Fucker as Miles say!
wat does gays have to do with it... surely u could come up with a intelligent response to the dislike bar... normally people would say something that is relevant to the video
SundaraYoga and toretaso, can you two do better? I'm not sayin "pick" a better player. I'm saying " Can you beat them playing?" If so , then we all would know who you are.....(nuff said)
Better than Jaco; (at being 'Jaco'ish) me Gary Willis Sean Malone Michael Manring Thys Vlaszaty I could go all day. Just pretty much anyone who can play harmonics, fast rolls, and fretless slides can be Jaco worthy

Wow! Guitar solo! Bass…everything. Fantastic recording. What a band!
Forever The Best!.The Master of The Masters The Great Mr John Francis Anthony "Jaco" Pastorius!.
Like others, didn't intend on spending 13 minutes on this song but wowee! This is a great recording! I love it! The guitarist works well with Jaco.
Who could dislike this piece of art? Jaco? Pfff, hiram ? Flying!
R.I.P. Hiram Bullock!
Man! This is Hiram Bullock ！ Obvious!
He was brilliant on this..
Doesn't get any better. ...
NO ONE BETTER THAN HIRAM BULLOCK...
Hiram is fucking on fire. I have these CDs and continue to were them out.
Me too! They were rare to find at the store but I snapped them up when I saw em.
I had one too. Can i borrow yours?? Ill give it back 😁
Genius, genius and genius
can really tell who's a bassist round here ;) this is an amazing recording, everyone is on fire. the Guitar on the head and the three sections of the solos are refreshing.
Fantastic version - love it :)
Best version ever.
AGREE 100% WITH YOUR COMMENT, THIS HAS MY JAW ON THE FLOOR - SPEECHLESS!! FLAWLESS!!!!
I LOVE Jaco! I'm wondering why after TWELVE years this finally showed up? I thought I've seen/heard all of his vids/live stuff but things keep coming up!
Incredible clean sound man, best upload ever. Plus they play at their best. How can you dislike this???
This is BADASSSSS!!!!!!

i was there.. it was magical
Hiram Bullock is layin` it down pretty good himself
He joined Paul Shapher and the `NBC Orchestra`
for awhile there I remember
so clean.
Amazing song!!!
thanks a lot for sharing this!
Can anyone explain what Bullock is doing on that pass at 9:40..? It’s absolutely incredible...
Anyone else notice how during the guitar solo Jaco was sampling River People? (;
el mejor...
Wow, can you believe the distorted sound of his bass beginning at 10:47, KILLER, it's hard to believe I recorded this on my Sony Walkman. I guess if this is a bootleg then I'm a bootlegger, HA!
Recorded 1985 !
Jaco was the most precious soul to touch a bass. Now, that being said, can we have a date for this performance, PLEASE?
Yes you can. I recorded this on my Sony Walkman at the club Seventh Ave. South. The date was December 13th, 1985. Five years later I put it on a CD titled Pastorius Live in New York City, subtitle "PUNK JAZZ"
yes

Also, thanks for providing the date too. :D

It's ORGASMIC!!!! :Q_______ __ _
i intented to click this song just to get a sample of how it sound so i could go back to the other vids, i ended up listening to the whole thing
I checked out your channel and I was surprised: NO VID of you being better than Jaco! I was highly expecting that, you should do some uploads, I can't wait!
greetings
No one smokes a fretless bass like Jaco did.
Any bassist should listen to Jaco to learn how being more than "a" bassist but being "the" bassit
I meant Hiram Bull-lock! Lagrene is on the European gigs.
ive always liked this whole album 'punk jazz' alot---so I looked at the musicians on it---lol it turns out my fiance's 'sperm donor' (runaway deadbeat father) was the sax player on this album lol- small world.
cool uploaded on my birthday. Any chance to get "Teen Town" from New York Vol. 2 up? That one slaps!

@LdyChatterleysPlover I think it sounds so cool and funky

Thank you. from Neil Weiss :)
Ros Wetss, Guitar : Mike Stern chorus man! ;)
Are you sure? Isn't that Hiram Bullock? I think the version with Mike Stern is faster.. on the Album "Pastorius live in New York: Raca"
+marlonJL I like the Hiram Bullock Version pretty much but I likethe Mike Stern Version even more... Which version do you like more?
If anyone gets a chance, get the cd "8:30" by WEATHER REPORT. The live version of this song by the group KICKS MUCH ASS!
Whats the name of the funk song that they are playing at 10:15?? I also recognize but I cannot think of the name!
I know that funk song at 10:15, i just cant remember the damn name!!
I wonder what year this was?
@stewnaaitsabes The incredible and also tragic Hiram Bullock...
yo pongo lo que quiero hermano, vos pones lo que quieras..
Pastorius in his ‘European gipsy’ period. Lagrene is very very good, Jaco is just good.
Love the drumming guitar. Jaco is from somewhere else ! My ears are fuckn happy Holy shit. Set aside the stupid goat thing. Jaco is an absolute master. Mutha Fucker as Miles say!
Kool And The Gang, Hollywood Swinging.
"Hollywood Swinging" by Cool & The Gang
who's the guitar player?
I came
river people AT 2:10 ISH
the chicken
that guitar player did not rest the entire song. literally. I mean what the fuck?
@jascarver2
wat does gays have to do with it... surely u could come up with a intelligent response to the dislike bar... normally people would say something that is relevant to the video
SundaraYoga and toretaso, can you two do better? I'm not sayin "pick" a better player. I'm saying " Can you beat them playing?" If so , then we all would know who you are.....(nuff said)
Metal and codices ocults gypsy music age 1800...
aww...that disappoints me a bit. but then do something even better than doing something better than jaco and film it, maybe? that would be so cool. :)
I do better things with my time. Like writing music and improvising basslines to classical songs
Better than Jaco; (at being 'Jaco'ish)
me
Gary Willis
Sean Malone
Michael Manring
Thys Vlaszaty
I could go all day. Just pretty much anyone who can play harmonics, fast rolls, and fretless slides can be Jaco worthy
Nonsence none of u comes close to Jaco but Im a great musician myself check me out on you tube Spotify iTunes
get your guitar the hell off my bassline
LdyChatterleysPlover HELL YEAH BROTHER!!!!!
what happened to the guitarist? Sometimes he goes out the rhythm.
3 gays
POWERFUL band!
