One of my favourites from Roy Hargrove (RIP) is his famous “Strasbourg / St. Denis”:
He also has the opening track of this great album – one for bass players and others alike:
This one? I was recently asked what makes a good bass line, and/or how to compose one. After giving it some thought, my answer would be that if I’d get this album as a birthday present myself and started studying the bass lines and where all the players come from, then I’d had enough to do for the next few years…
Enjoy, and thanks for reading & listening.
Edit: prefer a live version of that famous stop in the Parisian Métro? Here you go:
Again, thanks for viewing.
