*This sounds quite good- I think A-/B+


Note: I received this thing poorly tracked/edited.

There's the Mingus BB but Jaco deserves a version too. If you don't know already, Peter Graves was the leader of an orchestra that Jaco was in from 71' to 75'. Another lesser known name to me on this is bassist Jeff Carswell. I think he does a nice job on this. Bona is Bona!
