Master bassist Will Lee on Jaco and his lasting innovations

Will Lee is one of the most sought after studio and stage bassists of our time. His resume is legendary. He knows bass and player history as much or more likely better than most.

For anyone unfamiliar with the actual background and lasting influence on bass playing by a modern bass pioneer and legend, this is Will’s take on the inestimable Jaco Pastorius.

Love Will Lee. Dude is so funky! He was in the all stars bassists David Garfield rendition of Teen town. I love his solo because well it’s Will and he used the auto-wah, :joy: He’s also a decent singer too.

I love his insight on being a working original material band… and being forced to do covers “how did you hear the stuff you like in the first place?” Brilliant. :slight_smile:

We had 2 albums of original music out… but still had to do the classic rock covers… but snuck 4 or 5 of our tunes into the set list each night :stuck_out_tongue:

This guy is so chill :slight_smile: Thanks for sharing this
