As if our minds weren't completely blown by hearing Donna Lee, Continuum and (Used to be a) Cha Cha in quick succession on Jaco’s first album, we then had to adjust our brains to the reality of Portrait of Tracy, the potentially greatest solo bass performance of all time.

In today’s video, we’re revisiting one of the most revolutionary bass guitar tracks ever. It’s the perfect way to introduce yourself to Jaco’s world of harmonics (try playing that final chord).
