Browse piano sheets by Jaco Pastorius on Zen Virtual Piano. Jaco Pastorius learned much of his craft playing in clubs. In an interview he recalled eight sets a night, going in at nine in the evening and leaving at 6:30 in the morning without days off, for a year and a half. He learned to read music during a 1972 stint with a group whose member Charlie Brent also gave him an influential crash course in arranging. On records he sometimes played the bass twice, so that it almost sounds like two basses; he described the effect as something like natural phasing. His biography on jacopastorius.com says he remained in Weather Report through 1981, displaying both incredible musicianship and onstage showmanship. He was also a famed session player, most notably appearing on Joni Mitchell’s Hejira (1976) and Don Juan’s Reckless Daughter (1977). In 1980 Weather Report released Night Passage, which included his classic ballad “Three Views of a Secret.” He also signed a solo deal with Warner Brothers Records that year and began recording his second solo album in August.
