These guys are all killer players but the bass player is from another planet. Fabulous. Even if this isn't your thing, you've got to respect their musicianship and chops. Nice post, Bebop.

Supports my idea that you gotta have that "pocket"...a well-defined space to play in; defined by the rhythm section. Chas is right; the bass player is awesome. Notice the drummer plays cross-hand. Not saying that's the best style, but lots of giants in the percussion field play that way.
This kind of music IS my thing. Unless you're Chick Corea, these's no work playing this style around here.
Damn, what a shame!

Nice stuff.......although Jazz is not my bag I can always enjoy listening & absorbing to hip cats layin' down a groove. Thanx for posting it.
