http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jaco_Pastorius
Jaco Pastorius, born John Francis Anthony Pastorius III (December 1, 1951 " September 21, 1987) was a jazz bassist and composer, notable for his virtuoso technique and fretless bass playing style. His major influence on the modern electric bass is widely touted, as he was responsible for the popularization of fretless electric bass. He introduced a textural approach and harmonic sense to bass playing that became the signature "Jaco" sound. Jaco's technique and style have profoundly influenced electric bassists both in jazz and in other genres. Although he was widely acclaimed as a virtuoso and a genius, his well documented off stage antics would eventually cost him his life. [show less]

Surprised no one had entered his name yet. Jack is the bassist most responsible for bringing the instrument into the forefront of music. Without Jack's influence....no Flea,Stanley,Mark,Jaco etc. Ask any of the leading Bassists who their initial main influence was, you'll see Jack's name more often than nought. [show less]
