What a sweet man. Considering the contribution he made to jazz - Basie, Sinatra, Armstrong et al, I'm humbled that he was never on my radar. And he must get the 'most precarious riser' award. Thanks Dave.

Nice one, thanks. I didn't know anything about him. Amazing tone, if the vid is anything to go by. I'll be searching him out.

Great vid ,thanks for sharing , Buddy caught my ear on the fantastic Ella and Basie record and I looked him up and checked some of his stuff with Lucky Thompson too. So pleased you posted this, there are so many wonderful yet relatively unknown bass players that should be appreciated

After watching the vid last night I listened to Ella and Basie again,you gotta check it out,the album starts with Honeysuckle Rose and the first 8 is just Buddy and Ella ,wonderful stuff
