Ron creates new musical paradigms and takes the Bass farther than ever before imagined with every song. The breadth and depth of his musical intellect is astounding. It makes me wonder what else is in that genius mind! Prayers.
This was the album Ron Carter was introduced to me by Marine bandsmen Anthony (Tony) Caruso. My principal instrument was the tuba but I was required to learn to play bass. I had no idea a bass could be played like this. While stationed in Japan, I collected every recording I could find.
When personal computers first came out, we were amazed. The internet thrilled and edified us, changing forever the way we think and communicate. Now, AI is dawning taking us to the next level in ways never even imagined in human history prior to computers. First there was the miracle and genius of the birth of jazz, then, the succeeding generations opened the door to creatively pathsinjazz that astoundedan
astounded and thrilled us, expanding our minds and emotional vocabularies and along with it. Then came Ron Carter. With his elegant, sophisticated and determined genius, he is the "AI" of jazz- the next level, whose future effects we can only imagine. Prayers.
Beautiful composition and makes me think of Autumn Leaves, in a way we never could never could have imagined if not for these artists ensembled and played together such.
Quel quartet!Ça swingue avec les étoiles!Kenny Barron formidable pianiste, Buster Williams et.../J'en craque!Au début quand ça démarre, t'as le pied qui fait des siennes et tu sais que tu vas prendre ta dose!Éternel!

+smartalek 180The main fact is when you get older, just be as young as possible in your mind. And not like certains young guys who are already old fart in their mind. Happy live to you
It sounds like Randy Newman ripped this song off for "It's A Jungle Out There", the theme for "Monk". There was even a track on this album called "Blue Monk"...
As much as I would love to agree with you I just can't. There is no best part. Everything about this musical piece is absolutely fabulous to me ! That being said that part is highly enjoyable for sure :)
Quando un uomo sa far cantare uno strumento! Questo è uno dei miei dischi preferiti.
Record breaking piccolo bass playing for 18 minutes, Mr Ron Carter I take my hat off for you. Dedicated you were in perfecting this track. 👏👏👍👍
Ron and Buster both in their element!

I had the privilege to see them perform at Montmartre Hus, Copenhagen, in the beginning of the 80s. A great tune!

Une merveille ce bassiste!D'accord on le sait mais j'y peux rien,je l'adore et ce depuis longtemps!Ç'est le plus grand!Quel son!
Monumentally as a simphonie

Che dire porcoddio, un'opera d'arte vivente Ron Carter
Que talento dado por Deus sou Diana do Rio de Janeiro admiradora da sua arte
I remember when this came out I was listening to Williams as much as Carter! I love that album cover!
Amazing chasing basses at 5:23. And Kenny Barron OMG!

his sound and phrases are so unique, he's letting it all out!
Too incredible…so ahead of time
this would have to be the finest double bass work i have ever heard so far
Right...

Listen to some Ray Brown. Not saying Ray Brown is better, just worth listening to.
