Sam Jones discography?

[dblbss]

Anyone aware of a Sam Jones discography or general info on him?

Now there's a guy that embodies everything good about the double bass. I wonder if a complete discography for him even exists; he did so much great work.

Anyway, here's a link to his stuff as a leader;

..and here's some of his stuff as a sideman;

Here's some of Sam's stuff on emusic

Also, Rob Gourlay has a book of transcriptions "Walking in the Footsteps of Sam Jones"

If you want to see Sam in action just punch in his name on YouTube... my personal fav's are the 1968-69 stuff w. Oscar Peterson in Italy and of course anything w. Cannonball... There is some amazing playing by Sam and all One finger on the right hand....."Noreen's Nocturn" You won't believe this one...

Thanks guys for the info. Yes I have checked out those vids of Sam on youtube.

There is just something about his playing. I could listen to him play 1/4 notes all day long and I love the sound of his bass.
