Hello.

I am wondering where we can find information (e.g., bio, discography, gig info, etc.) Quick search on the web didn't show any. I really liked funky plays of these two bassists who did a lot of studio work in 80's.

Thanks,
BVP

Scott Edwards used to post here...I still have an e-mail he sent me about "The Theme From SWAT". Scott was one of my favourite session guys from the day (along with Chuck Rainey & Will Lee). Some of those Tavares tunes had some nice, tasteful lines/figures.
There's a youtube clip of Stevie Wonder on Sesame Street (w/ Ray Parker, Jr.)...many here initially thought it was Anthony Jackson on bass...Scott chimed in saying it was he.
