My Jazz Story
I have been playing jazz for over 30 years on
my 160 yr old beautiful German bass. In that
time I have had the opportunity to perform
with many jazz luminaries as well as many
jazz "heros" of mine. While I have performed
on many other artist's projects, and served as
producer on several nice records, this is my
first recording project as a leader. You can
