The tougher part is not improvised but is not standardized either. On 



both of the recordings and other recordings later done by Weather 



Report with Jaco Pastorius, the bass part to the tougher part is 



different. My suggestion is to find a lead sheet for the song and draw 



your own from there. You can find a lead sheet for Black Market for 



free at www.lucaspickford.com. However, it is only to be used for 



educational purposes. 



This recording is interesting because it is extremely easy, yet Jaco 



and Alphonso (who is nothing short of a bass virtuoso himself) make it 



extremely charactaristic of their styles. By analyzing everything Jaco 



does in this song, one can begin to understand how Jaco made his 



presence through muted notes.
