Couldn't find the English version. Above url was emailed to me by Phillippe Lissart.

exactly, same here... but when I tried to buy it, the prompt said that the auction has ended. Am I reading it incorrectly?

*edit*

figured out my follie.... bought the CD.
 
Got my copy through yesterday and have so far managed to have a very quick listen to most of the tracks.

I listened to the disc through headphones and I thought the album would benefit from having a clearer separation for each player in the stereo mix (Michael left, Yves centre, Dominique right etc) - with Michael and Yves both playing fretless, it was occasionally difficult to tell who was playing what.

That's a minor niggle though - these three players are great MUSICIANS - the compositions are well-rounded and if you want to hear three players who are all pushing the boundaries of bass in different directions, you'll want this album.
 
I have a copy of the CD and it is one of the nicest CD's I have heard from a group of Bass Players.all of the tracks are in top form and the tone of each Bass is very inspireing,each player stands out on their own and I sincerly reccomend this CD to anyone who is into great music,the love of the Bass and the direction of Modern electric Bass today.
 
actually just got my copy (I know; I'm more embarrassed than I can express) and am loving it!

while most people know misters Manring and Di Piazza because of their extensive recording and touring backgrounds, I truly believe the exciting facet of this CD is Yves' contribution. his tone, phrasing, and groove are undeniable.

now everyone gets to hear why this cat is one of my favorite bassists (favorite musicians!) on earth. I am more pleased than ever that we are recording together... and desperately glad that I have almost 6 months to woodshed!!

:eek:

from the lowest,
