Thanks for sharing that. I dig the tone NHOP is getting here more than usual. It's great to hear his stellar playing so clean and super bassy. I'm putting this on my transcribe list.

Thanks for sharing. This is excellent.

As for horn/bass duos, I’m partial to those Big Two records with Red Mitchell and Warne Marsh.

Is that "Dancing In The Dark" changes?

 

[Keith Rawlings]

My favorite horn/bass duo of all time! It’s like they’re connected to each other the way each complements the other.
