You forgot to establish BEFORE or AFTER Jaco.

Personally I'm not a big fan of Jaco's, but he did change the world for most bass players and opened up the eyes and ears of a lot of people.

GARY WILLIS wins by a mile, he's just scary good!!!

We No Speak, with all due respect, please relax. You could wear out your welcome in no time, otherwise. Trust me.

Hey, Ron, the guy's just enthusiastic, that's all!

Rick--Tommy Flanagan had a line about bebop and the Beatles that I'll adapt for this thread: bass violin is the instrument that was the best choice for jazz before Jaco--and after Jaco.

My vote goes for Mingus.
