Happy 60th Birthday, Jaco

TRIBUTE to JACO PASTORIUS (Dec 1, 1951 - Sep 21, 1987) cd: GOSPEL FOR J.F.P. III (featuring over 60 musicians)

$10/$12 - FREE SHIPPING

An uplifting proclamation ofJACO PASTORIUS' musical doctrine: a modernized viewpoint consisting of bop-induced piano jazz; thrusting, bass-heavy funk; jazz fusion, spiced up with a taste of the Caribbean and South America; and much more. With this release, Jaco's Gospel is preached by over 60 world-class musicians, resulting in an intriguing, truly globalized perspective of his enduring legacy. Featuring such diverse modern day jazz luminaries, over 60 jazz and fusion legends, band mates and colleagues of the legendary electric bass virtuoso and innovator Jaco Pastorius. Among this this list of luminaries are: Alex Acuña,Carles Benavent, Charles Blenzig, Delmar Brown, Hiram Bullock, Kenwood Dennard, Hugo Fattoruso, Michael Gerber, Gil Goldstein, Danny Gottlieb, Billy Hart, Toninho Horta, Bireli Lagrene, Armando Marçal, Marcus Miller, Bob Mintzer, Othello Molineaux, Jorge Pardo, Felix Pastorius (Jaco’s son), John Patitucci,Mike Stern, and many, many more! this critically-acclaimed tribute is much more than a rehash. The various artists extract the late legendary bassist's respective compositions' inherent attributes, only to reshape rhythms and melodies that form a collection of unique, nouveau interpretations ...the ultimate tribute to the ultimate bassist.
