Double Bass Bass/jazz guitar duet recordings?

[fretlessman71]

Annoying. The search function won't let me search for the word "guitar". So you're saddled with my post.

I'm looking for great recordings of bass and jazz guitar. It can be double bass or electric bass, I'm not picky - it just has to be those two instruments and nothing else. Got any favorites? Thanks in advance.

 

[FMartin]

Gary Peacock / Ralph Towner

Joe Pass / Red Mitchell

Joe Pass / NHØP

Jim Hall / Ron Carter

 

[Chris Symer]

+1 to all the above as well as;

Jim Hall/Red Mitchell
Jim Hall and the Bassists ( Haden, Holland, McBride, Colley, Mraz)
Gene Bertoncini/Michael Moore
Larry Koonse/Darek Oles

I'm sure I've got a few others that I'm forgetting about.....

 

[Paul Warburton]

Paul Warburton and Dale Bruning (the poor mans Jim Hall /Red Mitchell ). The Duo. "Our Delight." The Capri label. Vinyl only.
The Jim/Red side is reffered to by jazz bassists here as....THE RECORD. Currently unavailable ASFAIK. Music doesn't get any better that this.

 

[FMartin]

Bertoncini & Moore, of course!

Steve Rodby and Ross Traut


PM'ing PW now

[Mike Goodbar]

Don't forget Slim and Slam! O'Vout O'Rooney!

 

[bassicmelodies]

Beyond the Missouri Sky (Short Stories) Pat Metheny and Charlie Haden

 

[kirksanger]

+1 to all the above plus:

Gary Peacock / Bill Frisell
Joe Pass / NHOP - Northsea Nights (live)

For a little more of the non-traditional:
Barre Phillips/ Derek Bailey

 

[FMartin]

Steve Rodby & Ross Traut

Google recordings by Ed Bickert/Don Thompson , Reg Schwager/Don Thompson or Lenny Breau/Dave Young.

I'm not sure how much you folks outside of Canada are aware of Ed Bickert(retired) or Reg Schwager, both based in Toronto. It's the best jazz guitar playing you will ever here in your life.

 

[Wally Malone]

Joe Pass/NHOP titled Chops

 

[Bruce Lindfield]

You can see a lot of Joe Pass with NHOP on Youtube.

 

[Mesa]

Something more current...
John JB Butler and Essiet Essiet -Bahama Cowboy

 

[funkybassplayer]

David Cullen ad Michael Manring - Equilbe: Groovemasters Vol. 6

This is a great album with only fretless electric bass and classical/steel string guitar.

 

[groooooove]

joe pass and niels henning orster peterson "chops"

[ugly_bassplayer]

Joe Pass/NHOP titled Chops

That album hit me in the face like a freakin' ton of bricks.
If you think you can play standards , listen to that album & prepare to be kicked in the nuts.

The playing on that is insane. True masters at work.



Donna lee, live, insane.....

 

[neurotictim]

Caron - Ecay - Lockwood - Bass w/guitar and violin. Highly recommend it, Alain is one of my absolute favorite bassists!

OOoh, also - check out anything with Don Ross and Andy McKee.

 

[jlilley]

David Friesen and Uwe Kropinski: Made in Istanbul and Made in Berlin... good stuff!
And like PW said, the RECORD is a must.
