Bilbo Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 It is now 44 years to the day since Paul Chambers, bass player on Kind Of Blue, Giant Steps, Skteches of Spain, Porgy and Bess, Tenor Madness, Milestones and hundreds of other sessions for Blue Note, Riverside, Savoy and Columbia Records, succumbed to tuberculosis in a New York Hospital. And he remains one of the most influential double bass players in Jazz. To quote Malcolm Cecil, bass player who spent some time with Chambers when Miles toured the UK in 1960; 'God bless you, brother Paul'.
