Jaco Pastorius - Bass Line on "Dry Cleaner from Des Moines"

This is a classic Jaco track from Joni Mitchell's "Mingus" album that featured Jaco along with Herbie Hancock, Don Alias, and Wayne Shorter. This is one of the first things I had ever heard by Jaco back when I was around 14 or so. There's another really cool version of this tune on Joni's "Shadows and Light" CD as well.
