I discovered this video several years ago and just thought I would post it just in case there are those who have never seen Jaco in this role. Toots Thielemans is one of my favorites also.

Thanks Rocky, I really enjoyed this. Have always admired Jaco but also have been a fan of Toots since hearing him perform Bluesette many years ago.

the smile on jaco's face at 3:38 tells it all! :o)

I recorded oteil burbridge's intro (from one of the jaco tribute intro albums) to this song about 4 years ago on bass and put it on my youtube page. It isn't awesome...but it isn't terrible.

here's a link to the video:
