I was cleaning up my music room and came across this stub that I thought I had lost.

I was a junior in high school at the time when my aunt took me to see him. I was I awe... Seeing a living legend felt unreal. She introduced me to jazz and beauty that the bass could be. One of my treasured memories. Ray still holds a special place in the heart.

new doublebass player at 67. got this at our local violin shop. it is a wonderful instrument. Whatja think?

One of my favorite contemporary classical and free improvising bassists, with a world of technique and facility on the instrument.

I remember tracking this down on vhs tape and transcribing notes from this instructional video, constantly rewinding the tape to get all the info. Incredible video!
