He was playing with Bud Powell at 15 yrs of age . Pretty spectacular IMO

Nigerian marketplace is still in print to the best of my knowledge , hopefully they’ve reissued the San Jones album

I was going over newbie upright bassists links and think we're missing a couple - Avery Sharpe , who was MCcoy Tyners bassist for 25 years is a serious bad ass especially his Arco . Reggie Workman is another bassist that any and every newb to upright jazz playing should hear .

Bill Evans live at keystone corner 1978 with Philly Joe Jones is the only one I've heard him on

Mack the Knife , he absolutely drives this album, Eric Dolphy live at the five spot.

Check out Third rail, of course without Bernie Worrell, the fact that Laswell and James Blood Ulmer are even playing together again is amazing , and check out Bass Invaders Jah Wobble , Josh Werner , of Roots Tonic

It does , I absolutely love this baby .

My G&L L 2000 fretless ,
