Jaco
Electric bass as you have never heard it before. Jaco Pastorius is widely respected in both the jazz and rock worlds. He is best known for his work with "Weather Report", a popular fusion group. Listen to his use of harmonic chords. Also listen to the way he uses repetition as a sonic canvas. (good one..."sonic canvas"... I'm cracking up that I wrote that, perhaps I should write for the Times. The baloney section.)
