Alternative Fox presents Aurex Jazz Festival In Tokyo 1982, a live album by Jaco Pastorius & Word Of Mouth Big Band. Bass wizard Pastorius was considered one of the world's greatest masters of the instrument. After playing with Pat Metheny and Paul Bley in the mid-'70s, he joined Weather Report in 1976, remaining with them until 1982, when substance misuse and mental health issues sparked a rupture. Live At Aurex was recorded during a maiden voyage to Japan, undertaken with a 21-piece big band; the astounding recording showcases his blinding bass skills, as well as the complex arrangements he oversaw as band leader.
