This visualisation is particularly joyous:
This is also joyous in its own way, also contains a super-simple tutorial on the sound. Wish I could play with this absolute precision...

Good stuff.
While he may have spawned legions of clones that often end up being somewhat regrettable, the fact is that Jaco Pastorious is a huge reason why I decided to pursue music professionally. This is one of the tunes that did it, and even though it's Jaco that drew me to the record, the end result was that Wayne Shorter became my all-time favorite composer and musical role model all around.

t's true that Jaco really left an indelible mark on music. And I agree with u, programmer, the inspiration he gave off can be contagious. Speaking of precision, I recently saw some cool resources on mixing and production that can really help refine the sound, kinda like what u mentioned in ur message.
