Jaco Pastorius.

Of course it's better to start with something less complex... Almost all Jazz requires some good bass, i recomend Charles Mingus, Miles Davis and Bill Evans for some good bass driven jazz.

One important technique that you should try on bass is the slap and pop technique, which is the technique that Flea, Les Claypool, Bootsy Collins and Larry Graham most commonly use... It's easy to learn, dificult to master.

To learn the basic fundamentals of this technique, go here.
