I was scrolling Peter Erskine's site and to my surprise he had some WR pics up, including one of Joe, Jaco and Peter's wife Mutsy which I hadn't seen. The pic is at

Great photo! Jaco is beautiful. If anyone has photos, it's Erskine, he use to be the only one on the road, except for myself sometimes, taking pics regularly.
Well that is a cool photo. But obviously its not Jaco with Weather Report in 1974 as the site says. It looks like its probably 1977. What do you think T?
"The photo I took of Jaco was during a break at a show he played with Jorma Kaukonan. The date was January 4, 1985 at "My Father's Place" in Roslyn, Long Island, NY."
Jaco liked making funny faces...don't know if it has been written anywhere, but he used to do a string face too, by wrapping fishing line in a random way across his face.. whatever it takes to entertain, and make people laugh. He told me it started when he was around 7, just to impress the girls. :o)
Bob Minkin, who's images I dig very much, is doing a gallery showing of his works spanning over 30 years of photography. You can see another foto of Jaco with Wayne at his site:
