    Maybe I dared too much but this is such a fantastic line...I hope Jaco will forgive me.

    The really messed up thing-Jaco was almost certainly improvising that badass line.

      Improvising is far easier than playing by sheet music. Take it from a guitarist

    I think Jaco would have loved this tip of the hat! It's a well played tribute, and a terrific way show non-musicians just how much more the bass contributes than they might have realized.
    On the other hand, using Jaco Pastorius as an example, as all who remember him would agree, is a rather EXTREME one!
    Nicely done...

    I adore this track but have never really paid attention to the bass specifically before, its such a busy song, but now I see the bass drives it all. You played it so beautifully, thanks so much for opening up my ears!

      Rainbow...Jaco drove the rhythm, the harmony parts, the groove, and repeatedly filled in melody. On bass...busy, as Joni is in unconventional open tuning.

    Well, maybe as good as he did in the record! The solo it's one of musical nightmares! Anyway, I think his golden period has been '76-'80 but I'd be happy to play at 1/100 of his '85 value!

    Nice work! One of my favorite bass lines, too. Got me hooked on Joni Mitchel. A friend turned me on to this album and was pretty unfamiliar with Mitchel. I started listening and was immediately saying "Who's in that BAND." What a surprise to find most of the Pat Metheney Group (one era or another) backing up a pop star.
    Well I don't think of her as just a pop star anymore, needless to say.

    There's at least one other "In France..." bassline on youtube. I'm not gonna pick sides here, but this is fantastic. Oh, and Jaco's take is pretty good, too... ( don't think it's him on the Summer Lawns album version but a lot of people like his live version even more than the studio reccid).

    Well, actually I don't have it at the moment but it's on my list: having studied the line note by note I just want to take advantage of that and do a useful job for others.
    So far I've transcribed the first 20 bars (since I play by ear it's quite hard for me)... I'll let you know.
    Thanks a lot for the apreciation.
