Besl bass CDs

.....move over Edgar, Gary, et al. I never heard ANYONE play the bass like Bozo (pr. Bosho) Paradzik. His CD, Elephant oder Schwann, is on Virgin Classics, but is hard to locate. It's not for sale in the USA, but can be found at Amazon.com/Germany. Imagine Oistrach playing the bass - there you have it.
.....Also: Renaud Garcia-Fons . Navigatore (his most recent). Whew!! ..Get them ALL. (Fuera, Oriental, Alborea and Legendes).

If it's not available in the US, then MP3 that sucker and help spread the good word!

Mine would have to be the very first jazz album i ever bought back in the mid 70s called GIANTS OF THE ORGAN LIVE IN CONCERT. double album.with jimmy mcgriff and groove holmes on organs. jerry jemmott is awsome on DB.the live recording is great. its like being in the club. i wore out the album but before i did i made a copy on cassette. thank god.

Yes, this CD of Bozo Paradzik is splendid.

About Oistrakh playing the bass, maybe
this defines more the Tubin concerto recorded
by Hakan Ehren, though ?
