Jaco Pastorius – Signature Licks

Description

This book is a tutorial book containing the trademark grooves and solos of Jaco Pastorius, the man who revolutionised the bass guitar.

When Jaco Pastorius hit the scene in 1976 he turned the collective bass world on its ear. No one had ever attempted – much less succeeded at – such mind-boggling wizardry on the instrument. Jaco’s music went beyond being dextrously gifted however, as his fluid, emotive lines were as musically deep as they were technically proficient.

This book enables you to get a closer look at his rich body of work through the structural, theoretical and harmonic analysis of these classic Jaco recordings:
