I'm just trying to compile a disc with some groovy cello tracks for a kid who plays cello...

My pre-selection includes:

Ray Brown: Ain't Misbehavin' and Rock-A-Bye (from Jazz Cello)

Ron Carter: Eclipse, Warm Canto, Yes Indeed (from the Dolphy Prestige box)

Sam Jones: Sack O'Woe & Work Song (from Nat A.'s Work Song), Deep Blue Cello, No Greater Love, Over the Rainbow, 'Round Midnight (from his own three Riversides)

Fred Katz: Cockeyed Optimist, Granada, Katz-Up, Music to Eat By, Pluck It, Stella By Starlight, The Sage (from the Chico Hamilton Mosaic)

Oscar Pettiford: Oscar's Blues (from Vienna Blues)

Doug Watkins: Andre's Bag & Soulnik (from Soulnik)

Eldee Young: My Baby, Tennessee Waltz (from Ramsey Lewis' Bohemian Taverns & The In Crowd)

what sayeth thou?

Don't forget to add some Joel Friedman (with Albert Ayler or Charles Tyler, or both!).

Might scare the kid :o , or might turn him on <_<

I listened to some Abdul Wadud and Friedlander, but I think I'll keep it swinging... :)

Daniel Levin's mentioned way back in the thread with one Cd. He's now got four released to my knowledge on labels Riti, Hatology and Clean Feed. All are well worth investigating to discover what a younger cello player's bringing to Jazz and improvised music right now.

Hey Flurin, if you get a chance, check out Friedlander's Broken Arm Trio release. It swings.

Thanks for the recommendation, Tom!

I recently got his two hatOLOGY discs, but have yet to listen to them...

Maybe I missed it but has no-one mentioned Fred Katz with Chico Hamilton?

Katz is terrific! And going back to visit the Chico Hamilton Mosaic for the compilation I plan to make, I realized how broad his range is!

He opens and closes the compilation as it looks right now, and has more tracks in between...
