Rene Worst retrospective appreciation

[Bass V]

primarily an upright player and long time teacher, bitd he was hot stuff on electric, one of those ultra talents who get slight mention but high praise when his name comes up. not a ton of recognition here on tb, I'm discovering him thru his old band Skywalk, often an '80s MOR instro-jazz band but a fusion group in live settings, he gets in some fantastic lines on this great rare recording.
another fan's long journey to discovery; Please help identify a fusion band and the bass player
