Who's heard Little Richard sing "Shake a Hand"?

"Looking super duper just like Gary Cooper."



What a strange tune. If the guy who hates you is a professional gunslinger and you are not why not take your darlin' far away to a healthier climate? Ooh, ooh, I know. Die like a dog in the dust, that way your darlin' will HAVE to forsake you.
 
Jaco Pastorius This Bass Solo Changed Popular Music


Whaddaya know, my Jazz Bass looks exactly the same. Edit: But I never ripped the frets off of mine. I bought a Korean fretless instead. If only simply owning something identical made you play just as well.

Yeah, well Jaco set a pretty high bar. I was introduced to him when he played with Pat Metheny, just like Rick. It also introduced me to Pat Metheny as well, became a lifelong fan. My favorite Metheny album: "As Falls Wichita, So Falls Wichita Falls". Unfortunately, Jaco wasn't on that album, but give it a listen anyhow.
 
Here's something interesting, Pat Metheny and Joni playing one of my favorite Joni tunes, 'Amelia':
