MILKOWSKI, BILL Jaco. The extraordinary and tragic life of Jaco Pastorius. 'The world's greatest bass player.'
San Francisco Miller Freeman Books 1995 087930426X / 9780879304263 Soft Cover
263 pages, illustrations, pictorial wrappers, very good. From the dj, 'This book looks deep inside the life and music of Jaco Pastorius, the talented but tormented musician who revolutioned the electric bass's place in modern music. Like his heroes Charlie Parker and Jimi Hendrix, Jaco didn't make it to age 40. But by the time he died at 35, he had reinvented the role of the bass-playing melodies, chords, harmonics and percussive effects simultaneously, and bridging the gaps between jazz, classical, R&B and rock. From his early days playing R&B, through his emergence as an international jazz star with Weather Report, and on to his solo careeer and tragic last years, this book documents the entire life and music of Jaco Pastorius. Includes CD in rear pocket featuring 3 songs capturing Jaco in his musical prime from the Warner Bros. live album The Birthday Concert. This concert is regarded as one of his finest performances.'
