Yeah, Charles Mingues is awesome! Gunslinging Bird is one of my
favourite jazz big band albums (he's not playing on it, though).
I recently bought a double bass and am loving it.
Fun to play and
amazing sound with fingers and bow. I will be looking for a teacher
soon but first and foremost i'm looking for some good stuff to listen
too! I'm really enjoying Willie Dixons stuff and a few tracks by
Freundeskries (german hiphop) and Donovan. What else is good? I'd love
to here tracks in a range of style both bow and fingers.
Scott LaFaro
Ron Carter
Jimmy Garrison
Oscar Pettiford
Charles Mingus Ray Brown
Tommy Potter
Bertram Turetzky
Gary Karr
The first group lists primarily jazz giants, the next two fellows are
classical greats.
If you like Willie Dixon's work you should check out the Muddy Waters
recordings with Big Crawford.
I'd throw in Jaco Pastorius and Billy Sheehan, even though they were/are
mainly electric players.
??? Did they play Double-Bass at any time? By the way, I won't put both
of them one next to the other!!!
Best,
