A hugely overlooked player, especially since he used to play with Chick Corea, and IMO totally blows away his successor, John Patitucci!
His stuff with CAB (Bunny, Tony MacAlpine and Dennis Chambers) is ridiculously good modern fusion. He plays some amazing fretless stuff there, and as far as trios go, IMO those are three of the absolute best (especially Tony!). |

| | | | I have been curious about him since....
every time he plays at these bass player events with other more famous players (like Stanley, Victor, Marcus etc.) he is always mentioned as the standout or one of the standout players. Every time, without fail. that, to me is impressive.

I literally "devoured" his "Momentum" and "LA Zoo" albums!
Also CAB have some nice stuff out!!
The things I love more in Bunny are his melodic approach to basslines and his solos, always particular... |
