Flipping thru the tv channels last night and John Patitucci's name caught my eye. I know who he is but not real up on his DB work. The show was a recent Montreal Jazz Fest concert with Chick Corea. Holy crap, Patitucci can play. Corea is just deadly on piano as well. An hour well spent in any case and on the HD HiFi channel in pretty heavy rotation.

Actually, he's a bassist whom I truly admire- he's incredible on electric and upright, and me being someone who is learning to play both, he really gives me something to aspire to.
If you dug that performance, id recommend Keith Jarret's trio, in addition to the Bill Evans trio as I mentioned before. Bill stands out to me in particular, because his playing is so beautiful and expressive. He really does what I want to be able to do musically- he used music as a medium to express himself, and to explore feeling and emotion. Check out him playing 'Waltz for Debby' and 'Emily'. Beautiful, beautiful stuff.
Apologies for the long-ish off topic post, I'm just a huge Bill Evans nerd

I used to listen to them quite a bit in the early 2000's now that I think about it. That is some good stuff too.... In my very uneducated opinion.

I will do the full 2000 watt comparison in the morning.

I love the burl on that. How is the neck on that bass? I remember in the photos it looked extra chunky, which some of of us do like.
