Will, being in the New York studio scene myself during the late 70's early 80's playing with Omar, Bashiri and Kashif, you were and still are an inspiration to my bass playing. Everything from Billy Cobham's Dreams to Vince Mendoza. I heard you did a "Mike's" submarine commercial in Montreal, bass and vocals.

Will Lee, one of the world's greatest bass players, with a resume of hits and credits longer than a football field...and people want to throw stones from the comfort of their bedrooms! I absolutely love this - you are willing to put yourself on video and speak passionately about some of your inspirations - Jamerson, McCartney, Jaco - and you do it in such a humble way. It makes the regular joe's like myself again understand that musicians on every level are - or should be - connected by the music and musicians we are passionate about and inspired by. Thanks for your contributions to the soundtrack of my childhood!

Will Lee has contributed to so much great music over the past 35-40 years. He's pretty humble, but he's a monster. Not necessarily a trend setter, but a spectacular accompanist and a man with 'big ears' as they say. He really understands his role as a Bass player and always gets inside the music. One of my favorite musicians.

Absolutely. And Jaco's genius becomes apparent when musicians this good can't really approach his feel, musicality & tone. In fact it sounds kinda noisy and crappy when he tries to show us by example. In this way, Jaco is beyond Hendrix originality, that he still can't be imitated in any way that does him justice.

Will Thanks for the great memories you shared about Jaco !! I got to hang with Jaco and I think it was Terry Nagel for a weekend in 1985 at The L.A. guitar show. I stayed at and watched ( slept in ) a room for Musician's Institute ..at that hotel where the guitar show was at.. So I saw pretty much all the music happenings that weekend... I had a few times where Jaco and I were by ourselves and he would tell me some very deep and personal things going on in his life at that time. and the other times it was the 3 of us ..Jaco... Terry ? and me and their friends... I feel so very blessed to have met him . Memories I will always be thankful for !!!!

I might have been a bass player had I not discovered you. Back in 1987 I believe, there was an interview you did in Guitar World called "The hardest working bass in show business" (something like that)I learned about your schedule and your Late Night gig.. then I realized, "Wow, being a musician is work!" So, if freaked me out a bit.. Your world seemed so serious and professional.. So I stuck to being a sloppy rock n roll guitarist.. :) 30 years on I am getting serious about bass.. The ol finger joints aren't liking it but I'm having a blast.. Love the interview .. Thanks for the inspiration!

There is so much I love about this video, it's hard to know where to start. The absolute reverence for Jaco in Mr. Lee's words are inspiring and touching. But then the degree with which he has studied Jaco's touch on the the fretless J-Bass shows an adoration that translated into hours of study. This film makes me even more proud to be a bassist, and even more convinced that the instrument has centuries of genius ahead of it. Our musical culture embraces scientific rigor, artistic creativity, and respect for our forebears. As Jaco himself said, "WOMEN AND RHYTHM SECTION FIRST!" Thanks again for this, Mr. Lee.

That's the Jaco I remember when I was at the UM music school 1972-77. I used to go down to the Unitarian church in S. Miami to hear him play with Ira Sullivan. It didn't matter if you were an established player with real chops or a beginner like I was at the time, Jaco was humble and gracious to everyone. A couple of years later I saw him at a Weather Report concert in NYC and he greeted me like I was an old friend. I have to smile when ever I hear him play because there was so much joy in his performances. He heard things nobody else knew was there and made it real for the rest of us.

Hey Will Lee! Your interview was just awesome I enjoyed it so much you're my fav kind of musician - honest open minded and willing. The humility you exude explians to me just how and why you have such a talent and ability to "get" music, and from the sounds of it you totally get people too (your comments on Jaco were thought provoking and beautifully reverent). Anyhow I'm just a faceless "nobody", an anon, yet I look at my fellow musicians (rich/poor - famous/nobody) as equals and the real good ones are always "students" no matter how old they are, just look at Wille just turned 91 and still growing. I'd suggest you're this type - "Jaco introduced the world to the treasure of bass". Credit where credit is due, period. No hero worship no class divide, as music is truly the great unifier of mankind! You're an inspiration to us all Will, and I'd just like to say thanks for the half hour well spent dude! Be well! - E.S. from TX

I got to town early and walked in through the back by the stage and listened to their last show. Three piece rhythm section and about 8 horn players. I had never heard someone play so percusiively. The band had so much punch. I talked to him a bit and he seemed like he was done with them. I only realized years later while reading about him that it was he that was playing that night.

Was with Jaco in the fall of 1982 in the Fair Oaks hospital in Summit New Jersey. I had just finished spending time at Berklee in Boston and had a breakdown . Jaco would sit with his bass at the end of the hall in near a closed doorway and let me sit next to him on the floor and listen. He told me he was not Jaco so I didn't press him about it. I had my real book I got before I left Berklee and would play the piano downstairs when I wasn't too drugged up. He would just shred on his unplugged bass and I'll always remember that experience.
