No reason, I just enjoyed it and thought others might,

Good find nick, I like the way JM tells the audience to 'shhhhhhh' for Jonas's solo Cool violin sound on the fret rubbing intro.
I listened to it with headphones plugged into the laptop, the audio compression and dubbing artefacts in the background made it sound like screaming geetars at one point, good ol' VHS!!
Very bonkers and Jaco-esque, JP was killed that year it was recorded (Sept 87)
Ta again,

That slappy Wal sound is exactly what my Warwick Streamer from 1988 sounds like, t'was the fashionable sound at the time IIRC I sooooooooooooo worked on that sound, my fingers still hurt from all that fast picking next to the bridge!
I'm more 'Mr Woody' tone, must be maturing a bit.

Use a plectrum, silly boy
- 'after all, all you have to do is going plunketty, plunk, plunk in the background.' (quote from my friend's dad about his son who put down his clarinet and picked up a Fender Jazz Bass - still largely inappropriate and dead wrong- but funny nonetheless)

Ol' Mucus Miller plays Clarinet and Fender Jazz.... Hmmmmm......your mate's son isn't mates with a grumpy trumpet player is he?
Most folk assume bass goes plunketty, plunk, plunk in the background sadly. It needs to in some musics but not all IMO.
I do use a pick BTW (+ thumb+fingers). I played with anything aslong I was being payed back then

If my mate, Stephen AKA 'Mark' Gardner was friendly with anyone it would be with a grumpy trumpet player.

Another nice clip.
'Nard Purdie explains how/why he developed that shuffly 16th's drum part found all over 70's Jazz rock LP's.

Lots of nice things I didn't know about
That took me to Peg and from there
No street cred in that I guess, but I can live with that, and from there I remembered this bit of late Weather Report. I keep forgetting how much I love that band in just about every version.

Yep, true, I spent countless hours trying to understand Chord Chemistry. (and failed).
Cool violin sound on the fret rubbing intro.
