Jaco Pastorius's groundbreaking 1976 debut, which changed electric bass forever: "Donna Lee," "Continuum," "Portrait of Tracy" and "Come On, Come Over" with Sam & Dave.
Jaco Pastorius's debut redefined what the electric bass could do, with dazzling technique, singing harmonics and boundless musicality.
Produced by Bobby Colomby, the album features an all-star cast including Herbie Hancock, Wayne Shorter, Michael Brecker, David Sanborn and Hubert Laws, ranging across jazz, funk, Latin and classical influences.
His solo take on Charlie Parker's "Donna Lee" is jaw-dropping, "Continuum" floats on fretless lyricism, "Portrait of Tracy" is a gorgeous showcase for harmonics, and "Come On, Come Over" funks with Sam & Dave.
His debut redefined what the electric bass could do. Bassists, please queue quietly.
