I love listening to jazz and especially latin jazz. Does anyone know of a band or group (or even solo artist) that plays a powerful driving bass in a latin jazz setting?
thanks

M | I'm gonna have to drop a big +1 to that! It's an amazing record, I can listen to it from one end to the other without missing a track! Jaco is really on top form, with some incredible soloing and groove lines!
Whats even better is that I picked it up at HMV in a sale for £2.99 on the way to a Joe Satriani concert! |

Andy Gonzalez is a master of Latin bass, check out his stuff with the great Jerry Gonzalez band. Bobby Sanabria & Ascension's 'NYC Ache' is a burner is you can find it, with some great electric playing from Donald Nicks. Lincoln Goines playing with David Valentin was also always great, especially the 'Live At The Blue Note'.

They have alot of recordings that are kind of meh...., but check out "cascades/rapid transit" and "telecommunication". Those albums have some awesome basswork on it, and its mixed right: back pickup fretless burp way up front | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
