A father-son duo whose artistry is somewhat reminiscent of Rodrigo y Gabriela, with a fair hint of World Fusion sensibilities, New Age, and some Nuevo Flamenco thrown in for good measure.
Take it easy - I didn't say they were the next RyG, so don't get yer Sunday-go-to-meetin' clothes all up in a wad.
Jaco Pastorius - Punk Jazz: The Jaco Pastorius Anthology (2003)
AMG sez:
Thankfully, there is finally a definitive Jaco Pastorius anthology that offers an accurate portrait of the breadth and depth of his innovative artistry beyond what his contributions to Weather Report and his own Word of Mouth and Trio of Doom (which many would argue are sufficient in and of themselves) would suggest. This two-CD, 28-track collection ranges across the fretless bass inventor's earliest recordings, documented by a live appearance with Wayne Cochran's C.C. Riders and home playing the Cochran standard "Amelia," to his work with underground R&B act Little Beaver and such artists as Pat Metheny, Mike Stern, Joni Mitchell in and out of the studio, Paul Bley, Airto and Flora Purim, Michel Columbier, Brian Melvin, and his diverse projects -- including "Birdland" with Weather Report.
