Jaco Pastorius/New York,USA 1984

The video of Jaco’s great excavation has arrived. February 28, 1984, the session at New York 55GRAND is recorded for 2 hours with audience shots. The footage is shot from a close distance with a fixed camera, so it’s easy to see and the sound quality is very good. The unit is led by Barry Finnerty, with Jaco on bass and Mike Stern on second guitar. In addition to Barry’s songs, standards, and various types of jam sessions, we also play Jaco’s 18th songs such as “CONTINUUM” and “TEENTOWN.” It starts off slow, but by the 30 minute mark it’s already a big battle! There is a guitar duo corner in the middle, but you can enjoy Jaco’s bass work for almost the entire two hours. Of course, Barry fans and Mike fans can fully enjoy it. However, it’s hard to believe that sessions like this are being held night after night with a limited audience… The recording time is 120 minutes. 55 GRAND, NYC, Feb 28 JAM / SATIN DOLL / JAM / JAM / N.Y.C GROOVE – CLEAN UP WOMAN / SATIN DOLL / JAM / TEENTOWN / JAM / CLEAN UP WOMAN / CONTINUUM / BROADWAY BLUES – GIANT STEPS – SATIN DOLL BARRY FINNERTY AND THE N.Y.
