Brian Bromberg

Although his tone is somewhat unconventional, very growly and knarly, I love the energy in both his electric on DB playing.

I think his chops are certainly remarkable yet he remains musical.

In a list of some newer talent, he's really dominated a good bit of my listening lately


Marc Johnson

Another really talented player. Love his fluidity. Great with Bill Evans in the 70's. More recently with John Abercrombie and on his own.

These three have been permanently in my mp3s for two years. Never sick of them

Kurt Elling - Flirting with Twilight - Marc Johnson bass
Dudley Moore trio - song for suzie - Peter Morgan bass
Deborah Brown - Jazz4jazz - Red Mitchell bass

I've been relistening to my old John Martin records lately ... Grace and Danger, Solid Air etc. There's some lovely bass in there too but I don't have a clue who it is.

Nice recent album with Eddie Gomez and Jack DeJonette. I love Eddie's sound on this, very dark, and he plays some amazing stuff. Jack is predictably unpredictable, as always.

Uncommon Ritual - Edgar Meyer
Bach Cello Suites - Edgar Meyer
Fuera - Renaud Garcia-Fons & Jean-Louis Matinier... DB and accordian... two French guys. I was lent this CD by a violinist I'm going to be playing with. It's quite unusual and beautiful... hard to describe.

I just got a Renaud garciz-Fons' Arcoluz. What an incredible player. He has an incredibly bright tone that not everyone will like, but his technique and musicality are incredible.

Increasingly, my 'pod is filling up with songs that I need to learn for performances.... I received some MP3s on Sunday morning for two new tunes from Amy Hanaiali'i.. for an opening act that we did that evening (with EW&F). Since it was a kind of big deal, I was glad to be able to listen to them while going about my business during the morning. Today, I have it loaded with tunes for a Willie Nelson recording that's happening in later this morning. I find the little thing indispensable as a scratchpad for last minute projects like these.
