OT--Roger that. I have always thought that his solo on the song Havona from Heavy Weather may be perhaps the greatest solo on ANY instrument EVER. His technique was beyond belief but the musical brain that created that was from another planet. I was and am a frustrated bass player but the amount I learned from him just trying to play along with the easier stuff changed my musical life completely. I think Steve Rodby (a musical genius too) said that once he heard Jaco he knew he had to strike out in his own direction or quit the biz, JP was that BIG.

Sorry for the long OT folks, I don't have PM ability.

MsPastorious, HENDRIX what a great idea

My favorite version is from the live bootleg tracks. I know you don't like songs so here this one's for you...


Will I live tomorrow?
Well, I just can't say
Will I live tomorrow?
Well, I just can't say
But I know for sure
I don't live today

No sun comin' through my windows
Feel like I'm livin' at the bottom of a grave
No-ho sun comin' through my windows
Feel like I'm livin' at the bottom of a grave
I wish you'd hurry up and execute me
so I can be on my miserable way

(Well), I don't
live today
Maybe tomorrow, I just can't say, but, uh
I don't
live today
Its such a shame to waste your time away like this

Existing

Maybe tomorrow, I just can't tell you baby, but, uh
Oh, I don't
live today
Its such a shame to spend the time
