This is my revised review, due to the fact that my unusual review contained comments about the DVD not containing footage from the unusual VHS release. I got in touch with Warner Bros, and they spot me straight. The entire, unique VHS release is indeed preserved on the DVD version. I’m not determined how I kept missing this footage (The performance of “The Chicken”), but it IS there. Thanks to Warner for checking into this for me.
It’s spacious to recognize that this primary historical document of Jaco Pastorius is now preserved on DVD. The video quality in my conception could have been cleaned up/sharpened a puny bit better, but this is a minor state. The sound quality is noticeably clearer. This, combined with the random-access ability to go to any share or example do this a grand over-all package. It’s truly inspirational to look, and a grand learning tool as well. While not exactly for the absolute beginner, it does veil some of the more “basic” elements of playing. I would quiet back any beginner to check this out, as it will definitely preserve you inspired! It’s fair noteworthy well-known viewing for any bass player – or musician for that matter. It’s NOT a video of gimmicks, licks, or tricks (and contain me, I’ve seen enough of those) . It’s a video about music and possibilities, and THAT’S what it’s all about folks. You won’t score any “secret short-cuts” or “bustle techniques”, but what you WILL derive is sound, practical, insightful KNOWLEDGE from a legal musician and master of his chosen instrument. This video smooth inspires me after years of viewing the VHS edition. It’s gigantic that Warner saw the accurate value in converting this to digital for future generations to leer.
Now for the complaints: If any, I would say that the bonus materials are of no value whatsoever. There is a short slapping lesson included (NOT FROM JACO!), that I feel cheapens the upright essence of the video, but hey, you don’t have to notice this share if you don’t want to! Also, the biography allotment is customary in not too in-depth. The last bonus piece that is supposed to account for a minute bit about Jaco’s equipment and set-up is nothing more than an advertisement for Fender Jaco clone basses – shameless advertising in my thought.

In summary, this is an considerable release both for its historical and educational value. It is factual to the orginal VHS release. I’m gay to witness the Jaco video has gone digital – HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
As for Jaco, the world’s self-proclaimed greatest bass player, he probably needs no introduction to anyone who is grand of appreciating him in the first spot so I won’t say any more to newcomers than that he isn’t MERELY the greatest bass player ever; he downright revolutionized the instrument with his seldom imitated and never-duplicated sixteenth-note style of scrape.
My brother old to bewitch bass lessons and he got this on VHS a long time ago. Although I am a keyboardist, I contemplate I watched this video more than he did, mainly to peek the trio’s performance of ‘The Chicken.’
Jaco Pastorius on bass, John Scofield on electric guitar and Kenwood Dennard on the drums.

This is one of the best musical acts I’ve ever seen on video.
The music: please, I won’t even downgrade it by trying to record it in words.
The performers: Three jazz gems who are as provocative to explore as anyone I’ve ever seen.
Watch John play that guitar; you can’t aid but feel the funk eating away at you as noteworthy as it does him. He looks likes he’s about to burst, but listening to him play, it’s easy to scrutinize why.
Kenwood Dennard is objective a MACHINE on the drums. His beats are straight-ahead, but so, so tight and funky. He violently shakes his head from side to side continuously with the same level of entertainment and accuracy executed in his drumming.
And then there’s Jaco. If his real bass playing is exclusive, his stage manner one-ups it. This guy is unprejudiced so uncommonly funky that his exclusive and somewhat laughable facial expressions can be explained by nothing other than that he even stupefies (is that a word? ) himself with his cutting-edge musical fare.
As for the pedagogical value of this video, I don’t play bass, so I’m not in the best area to give an educated conception on this. I did gawk some of the instructional portions, and Jaco’s riffs seemed difficult (that’s no surprise) . My two cents: I reckon that purchasing this video with the hopes of sounding anything like Jaco is tantamount to hoping you’ll conclude half the wealth of Bill Gates by purchasing Windows XP. Accumulate this video for the inspiration of watching masters at work; your advancement with any instrument is more a function of your talent, desire and persistent hard work than what you collect out of ANY video beyond inspiration.
FYI: Although I refer to him in the show, Jaco was murdered in 1987 by a nightclub bouncer who brutally ejected him from the premises and beat him to death. He was even homeless and broke for considerable of his life. It is heart-broken what this world gave Jaco in return for his genius, but he will never be forgotten by any jazz musician who is worth the instrument he plays on. There a thoroughly safe biography called ‘Jaco’ that I read a while back; check this book out if you want to learn more about this wonderful musical epic.
