Have you seen the 2014 documentary on Jaco Pastorius? If so, what did you think of it? And what’s your opinion on The Residents?

MY ANSWER:

I wasn’t too impressed with that doc although it was great to see some old footage uncovered. I think the doc didn’t cover much more than what was in Milkowski’s biography from ‘95. I also hated the end with all this necrophiliac jamming. Why does it always have to go there. Speaking of docs, I recently watched Theory of Obscurity which taught me a lot about the Residents I didn’t know. They were over my head in the ‘90s and probably still are, but I do appreciate anyone who puts that kind of effort into art and alternative perspectives.
