Double Bass Speak low with bowed arco bass

[Santinotafarell]

I heard a track it was the jazz standard " speak low" with an arco/bowed bass playing melody and a fantastic solo accompanied by rhythm section with another bass. The pizz bass player and piano player also took solos ( and maybe drums too.) Who is this? any ideas? i am stressing trying to figure it out ;/

I think Percy Heath recorded it but I'm not positive. Did a quick google and couldn't find it but that's what popped into my head as soon as I read your post.

It is actually a bass player i am not too familiar with named Wayne Darling on the album Art of the bass vol. 1. Check it out!

Ari Egilsson* is the arco bass player

I love how Egilsson gets kinda of vocal quality to his jazz arco. I didn't know about this particular album so thanks for that. Def get Egilsson's "Basses Loaded".
