A wonderful listen. Portrait provides an opportunity to "meet" Jaco and gain insight into where he came from. Well done! Looking forward to further releases. Well worth the wait.

"Portrait Of Jaco" is amazing! Bob Bobbing did an unbelievable job putting this project together. Through the music, interviews and audio clips of Jaco, you will come away feeling as if you knew Jaco.
But, you will go back again and again. And, it gets better every time. This is a "must-have" for every Jaco fan.

Bob...As you know, I had the privilege and pleasure of witnessing the development of POJ...but more importantly I was there with you over thirty years ago gigging on the road and it was at that time in your hotel room when I first heard the recordings of a young Jaco Pastorius fueling Wayne Cochran's C.C. Riders...you knew he was special way back then and now the world knows it. POJ is arguably the most important record since his solo debut album. It's all here...for devoted Jacophiles to those who are just hearing him for the first time....a wonderful tribute to Jaco's legacy!
