SUMMONER'S TALES...
"If I could have a guitar lesson from anyone, alive or dead, who would it be? Well, Jaco Pastorius is gone. I'd love to sit with Jaco in his day, and I'd love to know what he'd be doing now, if he survived his problems. It would have been remarkable. He was a drummer, too, and he played piano. I miss Jaco. I love Paul McCartney, though, so I guess it would be him."
