Only an ignorant fool would think Jaco is just playing notes.. Anyone with ANY musical knowledge would know everything Jaco did had purpose and was intentional. Its abstract to the untrained ear, but not to people that understand music.

This song touches the heart so deeply.. The bass line is masterful. Everything about this song is beautiful. You played it beautifully, tone, touch, time, and talent. Thank-you for sharing.
Great job Stephan👍🏼thanks for sharing with us!I saw &met Jaco@my HS in’72 when he was playing with Wayne Cochran &CC Riders.Still resonates with me to this Day☀️
One of Mitchell's best songs, lyrics and music. Doesn't get the attention it deserves because it wasn't 'confessional.' Also "Cold Blue Steel and Sweet Fire" from 'For the Roses.' One of the best 'junkie' songs ever. Would think she never wrote anything but "Blue" for al the hype that gets!!!!!
Señor usted es un genio es impresionante lo que hizo y lo comparte gratis , soy baterísta pero disfruto mucho de este tipo de videos aguante Jaco! Y Joni! ❤ Gracias 🫂
Well it doesn’t get any better than this, very proud to be subscriber 330. I hope more people get your videos in their UA-cam feed this morning also. absolutely marvelous playing, thank you so much for this wonderful tribute to Jaco.
Excellent tone and notation! That sound is so great. Love Jaco's famous tone. Just the BEST IMO. I love that 5 tring fretless you have there. That's a Fender, no? I know, Jaco "only needed 4 strings", but I wish he would have recorded and played with a 5 string, as I could imagine him hitting those low C's & B's with that sound of his, & I imagine it would be glorious, though I'm grateful we have plenty of his work out there to enjoy. I imagine he would probably use a high C string, though, more often than a low B if he had a 5 string, but who knows! I know he once had a custom 5 string acoustic. Anyway, good stuff!
Love your sound....I know "the sound is in your hands" and you have that "mwah" down, but can you share what effects you use in your signal chain (if any)...chorus, delay, compression? And what brands of gear you use? Thanks! Excellent job!
@@stephenbornemann1778 Hey Stephen, thanks. Sorry to be a PITA...can you tell me what brand(s) of chorus/delay you use? Im getting ready to make a purchase, your tone is amazing. TY
@@MJ98774 For live, I use MXR Bass Chorus Deluxe and Reverb. For studio (like this video), I use Logic Chorus and Fabfilter R2 (but the Logic reverbs are quite good too - GarageBand probably uses the same Chorus and reverbs as Logic).
@@MJ98774 The key thing is the action and how the strings are plucked more than the effects. I've recently changed strings to tapes to get more mids and posted a short comparison video recently - I now prefer them. Soon I'll try some half rounds to see how they are before settling on a set for a while.
Flat wound strings, bridge pickup, action optimised for the mwar fretless sound, mids boosted a bit, touch of chorus, touch of reverb, how and where the string is plucked makes a difference too
Sometimes I also add a delay with an extremely short single repeat which acts as a doubler to big up the sound. Jaco often did something similar with an MXR rack-mounted effect (worth a Google - a plugin emulator is available). I don’t think I used it on this recording though.

da discipline

His genius is in seeming to play two voices together; makes sense for the low voice to emphasize root & chord tones.
@bezuglich his chord and scale knowledge is super deep which allows him to create incredible phrasing. Not to mention? His touch and creativity.
Serious people playing and remembering Jaco, thanks for this, great job!!!!

Finally soneone who wrote the right chords. Thanks.
It's a beautiful tune and shows Jaco could really interpret Joni's material and add to it.

Thanks. I remember the first time I heard this. It still brings a tear to my eye.

Beautiful. Jaco sadly let poison into his life. I did too. Sad he was killed. This playing keeps his memories of him alive.

Wow, nicely played
Nice Job
Thank you so much for this. Genius presentation. I do not read music but I can see the flow and have watched the video of this song 1000 times 💯🙏💯
Meraviglia
What a lovely tone!
Thanks for your analysis. Fascinating and great playing and tone!
Beautiful
Thanks Stephen

Thanks. It's a Sire Marcus Miller v7 alder body - and use the low B string for other tunes
mesmerising

@@stephenbornemann1778 Thanks for the detailed post. Screenshotted and saved. Will watch that comparison video as well. Great playing and explanation.
What is your signal chain? Tone is glorious man

Sounds awesome! What strings are you using?
D'Addario Chrome flats on this. Very dark. Trying La Bella Gold Tapes right now and getting way more mids like Gary Willis
Ok - Jaco was not on the studio recording of this tune, so what live record is this? I'd love to hear the whole thing.
Shadows and Light soundtrack and video are available
Do you have pdf for this?
Yes
@@stephenbornemann1778 Hi. I would love to have the pdf as well. Or musescore format if you have it. Do you sell it?
Added link in description
@@stephenbornemann1778 Awesome! Thank you very much!
I have no evidence but being around Jaco & Joni were bumping uglies for a time
