Ron Carter

[Cliff Edge]

Nice interview etc in the Grauniad with Ron Carter, who at 86 is still working and touring. Long time Miles Davis collaborator he’s also played on some big hits in the pop world as well as his own albums. Well worth a read even if you never listen to or play jazz.

That’s great, thanks for the heads up!

 

 I love this track and bass part. Ron Carter on electric bass…

Love Ron. Jim Hall's Concierto is one of my favourite jazz albums, thanks in no small part to his playing - so smooth.

Rick Beato interviewed him a couple years back, well worth watching.
