Jaco was brilliant on his first solo album, and with Joni Mitchell on Hejira and Shadows & Light. I also like his Weather Report material, as Weather Report really needed to be funked up. I have a Live In Japan, Weather Report album, pre Jaco, and they sound really formless. With Jaco, they are so great. He caused Zawinul and Shorter to raise their game.
I also think Jaco crops up on the first Pat Metheny album on ECM, which has some great work from him.
