Best known for his work with the veteran jazz group Yellowjackets, the left-handed Jimmy Haslip discovered the bass guitar in high school, bought a standard right-handed bass, flipped it over, and immersed himself in learning the instrument while continuing to explore every great bass album he could get his hands on.
It wasn’t long before his growing interest in jazz and fusion sparked him to new levels, leading to a life-changing period when he met the great Jaco Pastorius.
