Here is as far as I know *THE* Jaco Pastorius discography, thanks to:

         Burt N Holzman
         ______________

I'm only the postman. Everything below this line is sent to me from Burt.
**************************************************************************

Here is a complete Jaco discography as sent to me a couple of months ago.




Here is what I've been able to compile as a discography for Jaco Pastorius.
I don't claim that is complete or entirely correct (in fact I know it's
not), but it's all I've been able to find out about so far..... if you have
any additions/corrections or comments, feel free to send them along.
I don't own all these albums but if you want to chat about any of them
just ask.  Many of these are on my perpetual "must get" list.
