Jaco Pastorius - Continuum pt. 1 [BASS COVER] - with notation and tabs

Here we go with another Patron putting me through the ringer. Thanks Nathaniel for this extreme challenge... Had to break it up again into two parts because, well, it's Jaco at his finest. I've always been in awe of this solo - it's so exceptionally melodic and beautiful but also ultimately technical. The 16th note lines are crazy difficult but Jaco makes them sound effortless, and the way he weaves through the chord changes is absolutely incredible - he truly could play the bass like a horn, with inflections and jazz vocabulary that few bassists can match even to this day. Also, it bears mentioning that the comping by Herbie Hancock and Alex Darqui on this track is breathtaking. One of my (and a lot of your, I know) favourites from the entire jazz/fusion era.
