I found a video of a Boomish rehearsal on youtube, great bass playing in there. Tim is one of my favorite groove players. So solid! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4adCT0648kE |

On the instrumental side of things, Rudder and Boomish are both excellent, and I really dig his playing with Uri Caine and David Binney. But my heart flutters most when I hear his contribution's to Wayne Krantz's "Greenwich Mean" and "Your Basic Live".

+1
I also really really dig the stuff he did with Jojo Mayer, but those two Krantz albums have been on heavy rotation lately. |

His stuff w/ uri caine's bedrock has been in top rotation lately. |

Just picked up Bedrock. Great, great stuff!!! Tim's groove on the first tune alone is worth the price of the disc. |

Tim is one of those guys who make everything look easy. |

I have been really digging his playing on the new Krantz Carlock Lefebvre album too, so supportive and funky. |
