AndrewHill Posted August 8, 2007 Report Posted August 8, 2007 Wow, more bad news. In addition to his work with Blakey and Trane, I also liked his work on The Artistry of Freddie Hubbard. What a big, rich monster tone he had. Quote
alocispepraluger102 Posted August 8, 2007 Report Posted August 8, 2007 (edited) Wow, more bad news. In addition to his work with Blakey and Trane, I also liked his work on The Artistry of Freddie Hubbard. What a big, rich monster tone he had. heard an interview with him in 1981 where he was considering just then amplifying his bass. relisten to ascension. the recording grows more beautiful with each hearing, and art davis' bass is a huge part of it.

Just relied on the AP newsstory... Quote
