Wow. Pretty intriguing. I'll be giving her work a listen.

The NYT did a good piece on younger bassist/composer Todd Sickafoose recently. Nice you see that they get the idea of the bass as a central and not just side instrument.

Thanks for sharing the link!

Linda Oh is a monster bassist. Little Asian girl with great chops, tone and time. She has an album coming out soon. You can check out some of her stuff on her Myspace page (http://www.myspace.com/lindaoh) or her website (http://www.lindaohmusic.com). Check out the youtube video embedded in her Myspace page of her soloing on a Dave Holland tune. Great writer too.

I almost fell in love the first time I heard her. If I weren't very happily married AND I wasn't twice her age...nah, I could never be with anyone who phrases better than I do...

All kidding aside, check her out, she's amazing.

thanks for posting those links, Mark. Very interesting, and the solo with the Dave Holland group is amazing.

I first heard her play on my teacher's Cd, Kaleidascope. I thought she was a beast.
