I really think that Jaco Pastorius should be featured in the Teen Jazz Influences section.

Very cool suggestion. But I think that Jaco would better qualify as a Teen Jazz Legend.

Ha, yeah, I agree having just reread the decriptions of both. Adding to that, Jean Baudin should totally be put under the influences.

I am not familiar with Jean Baudin. Enlighten me.

Jean Baduin is nothing short of a genius. He's not so much a jazz artist per say within his solo endeavors; he's a musician and a composer in a very honest sense of the word(s). He's not really confined to one genre when it comes to his solo works, they're simply beautiful songs, beautiful music. Admittedly, when he plays in bands they tend to be more in the metal vain.

Jean plays basses ranging from 9 – 12 strings.

I personally like the pacman bass.
