I'd love to play with:

Dave Garabaldi - serious fun-kay!
Vinnie Colaiuta - heard him play live once and his ability to bend time while keeping the groove strong blew me away.
Mickey Hart - He has tremendous sensitivity and ability to follow (and to go to unexpected places), and I'd love to see how much of that could rub off from playing with him.

@tampa, we've got to hear that cobb story.

Long story short: It was a tribute for late cornet great Nat Adderley at Florida southern College in Lakeland, Florida, where Nat had been an artist in residence for many years. I had gotten to know Nat over the years. Plan was for me to bring my bass over from Tampa for Walter Booker to play (Walter had played it previously, and liked it). A couple of hours before the show, I got the call telling me that Walter was too sick to play (asthmatic issues) and they asked if I would play. It was a great chance to play with Nat's old bandmates. We played some of the usual Nat/Cannonball repertoire, including "Jive Samba" and "Work Song." Yep, I was floating on air for a few days after that.
