Jaco Pastorius Big Band - Twins I '1982 [2013]

Tracks list

Features 24 bit remastering and comes with a mini-description. Recorded live at
Budokan, Tokyo, September 1st 1982, Osaka Festival Hall, Osaka, September 4th
1982, Yokohama Stadium, Yokohama, September 5th 1982. I almost rated this
recording a 4 because of the 20+ year old recording technology. But then I
listened more seriously and was truly taken back with the fun roller coaster
ride that Jaco and his 20 piece band took me on. With players like Don Alias on
Percussion, Randy Brecker on Trumpet, Peter Erskine playing smoking drums and
too many other heavyweights to mention I was taken to a really good place. From
Jacos incredible playing to Erskine, Brecker, french horns, tuba etc. this album
goes where very few go even today. All I can say is buy it and hold on to your
seat!
