Cut All Analogue at Bernie Grundman Mastering on Tube Cutting Equipment! Made in Canada. There have been many guitar gods, but there’s never been an electric bassist as deified as Jaco Pastorius. – Michael J. Agovino This live album by Jaco Pastorius and the Word-of-Mouth Big Band, featuring harmonica virtuoso Toots Thielemans as special guest, was recorded in analog 24 tracks by the Record Plant mobile truck at Avery Fisher Hall in NYC on June 27, 1982, as part of George Wein’s Kool Jazz Festival. This Deluxe 45rpm 200g edition is the first one to be mastered from the original 2 track master tapes that were found some 30 years later (the previous digital download versions were released from a digital remix of the 24 tracks). What we have here is the direct copy of the original pure analog 2 track mix. The brightest star in the electric bass firmament, Jaco Pastorius burst onto the national scene in 1976 with his audacious self-titled album on Columbia Records, featuring a lineup of top jazz musicians. With his extraordinary fretless electric bass playing as the centerpiece, Jaco Pastorius created an immediate sensation with the public and the media. His signature approach employed Latin-influenced funk, lyrical solos on fretless bass, bass chords, and innovative use of harmonics. In Jaco’s work with Weather Report and beyond, the self-described “greatest bass player in the world” (an assessment shared with virtually the entire music world) established a new identity and role for his instrument and became the torchbearer for a new way of playing both technically and conceptually. But behind it all was an ever present R&B and Latin-influenced groove and a screaming rock-‘n’-roll attitude that he refined and incorporated into sophisticated jazz harmonic structures. In addition to his extraordinary virtuosity, Jaco was also developing into an accomplished and sophisticated composer and arranger and those talents are gloriously on display on this album. The 3-time Grammy Award nominee was inducted into the Down Beat Jazz Hall of Fame in 1988, one of only seven bassists so honored (and the only electric bassist). His legacy as a bass innovator continues to this day, more than 30 years after his untimely death in 1987. Sonically, Truth, Liberty & Soul is also, hands down, the best-sounding Word of Mouth recording ever. So, Truth Liberty & Soul is not only a reminder of how much ground Pastorius broke in such a relatively short time on earth; it’s also a reminder of how talented and broad-minded each and every member of his Word of Mouth Big Band was. -John Kelman, All About Jazz Sure, Truth, Liberty & Soul is for the Pastorius fanatics, but it’s much more: this fantastically recorded document is a treasure trove of modern progressive jazz. The brilliant music found on it serves to underscore that Jaco was more than a brilliant, singular bassist (though that would have been enough); he was a great composer, arranger, and charismatic bandleader — a true jazz renaissance man. -Thom Jurek, AllMusic Musicians: Jaco Pastorius-bass, vocals Bob Mintzer-tenor sax, soprano sax, bass clarinet Randy Brecker-trumpet Othello Molineaux-steel drums Don Alias-percussion Peter Erskine-drums Bob Stein-alto saxophone Lou Marini-tenor saxophone Frank Wess-tenor saxophone Howard Johnson-baritone saxophone Randy Emerick-baritone saxophone Alan Rubin-trumpet Lou Soloff-trumpet Jon Faddis-trumpet Ron Tooley-trumpet Kenny Faulk-trumpet David Taylor-trombone Jim Pugh-trombone Wayne Andre-trombone John Clark-French horn Peter Gordon-French horn David Bargeron-tuba Toots Thielemans-harmonica Artist Jaco Pastorius Genre Jazz , Rock And Pop Label 2xHD Buying Options 200g 3LP Format 200g , 3LP , 45rpm Condition New Country USA Track Listings Side A: Invitation Side B: Sophisticated Lady Fannie May Side C: Okonkolé Y Trompa Side D: Reza / Giant Steps Side E: Mr. Fonebone Side F: Soul Intro / The Chicken Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Jaco Pastorius and more from Jazz View Product Quick View Jaco Pastorius Invitation Jazz | Music On Vinyl | 180g, 1LP Released 10th May 2024 £28.00 Pre Order View Pre/Back Orders Jaco Pastorius Invitation £28.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Music On Vinyl SKU: MOVLP2060C Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 10th May 2024 Read More Pre Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Jaco Pastorius Jaco Pastorius Jazz | Music On Vinyl | 180g, 1LP Released 11th October 2010 £17.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Jaco Pastorius Jaco Pastorius £17.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Music On Vinyl SKU: MOVLP136 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 11th October 2010 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Jaco Pastorius Jaco Pastorius Jazz | ORG | 180g, 2LP, 45rpm Released 3rd May 2012 £65.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Jaco Pastorius Jaco Pastorius £65.00 Genre: Jazz Label: ORG SKU: ORGLP011445 Formats: 180g, 2LP, 45rpm Released Date: 3rd May 2012 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Jaco Pastorius Word Of Mouth Jazz | Music On Vinyl | 180g, 1LP Released 17th November 2014 £23.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Jaco Pastorius Word Of Mouth £23.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Music On Vinyl SKU: MOVLP1260 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 17th November 2014 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Kenny Cox and The Contemporary Jazz Quintet Multidirection Jazz | Third Man Records / Blue Note | 180g, 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 22nd September 2023 £43.00 -
