Jaco Pastorius Quintet "Fannie Mae" feat. Michael Brecker live '81
In the spirit of Joni Mitchell announcing earlier today that she’s ready to release Volume 4 of her Archive series (which will feature outtakes and extras from her late seventies projects, and thus some brand new unreleased Jaco), I thought I’d post one more tune from Jaco’s debut live gig from 1981, which I recorded on a Walkman cassette recorder.
A quick note to my confident horn-playing friends: if you’re feeling good about your improv chops on a 12-bar blues shuffle, check out Michael Brecker’s solo on this tune. You might want to revise your confidence level 😉
Brecker goes first, promptly blows the doors off the place, and is then followed by Bob Mintzer, who smartly hangs on one or two notes for about a week as he plots his way forward. But like Breck, Bob's also a master, and his solo is a brilliant response to what had just taken place before he jumped in.
The third solo is Jaco’s, and he’s intent on blowing in Hendrix-like fashion. My apologies for the lack of fidelity on this part, which resulted from a combination of my exhausted little Walkman and Jaco’s distortion dialed up to 11, but for those who weren’t there I can promise you it was freakin’ LOUD.
By the way, Joni’s next Archive set will be released on October 4th. Personally I can’t wait to hear what she’s got in the goodie bag.

Here’s another clip from Weather Report's unreleased 1978 Astor Theater gig. Shot by Dr. Fred Erskine, with an audio feed from Brian Risner, this is a great version of “Black Market”. The first few minutes of Dr. Fred's video was fairly unusable, so the live shot doesn't kick in here until 3:09, as Fred zooms in on his son and Jaco. As always, the quartet era of Weather Report is a thing to beh...

Here's another unreleased Jaco performance from his Seventh Avenue South gig in April 1981. This tune was the quintet's set opener, and I guess the only way to describe it is that it was like watching five thoroughbred racehorses busting out of the starting gate. Some will find this recording exhilarating, others may find it unlistenable, and everyone else will land somewhere in between. This i...

    I grew up on the classic rock of the late ‘60’s and ‘70’s, and like so many, heard Wayne Shorter for the first time on Aja, but even with my untrained ear for horns, even if I’d only heard this and Aja, I think I’d have made the connection that it was the same player. That sax solo on Aja is a joy to listen to still, and if I recall, Walter and Donald played the track for him once, then he played the take.

Poison has taken so many of our childrens minds and ears.., and lets not pretend we don't know who pushes so called, 'Artists', to go in that direction. The great dissemblers.., the Great Gaslighters of the world. Reject them at all costs and return to the wholesome.
