David Williams
Born:
David Williams' route to the top of the jazz world has been somewhat unconventional: it has taken him from Trinidad to London to New York to Washington, DC to Los Angeles and back to New York. But there is nothing conventional about brilliance, and as a bassist, that is what David Williams exemplifies. His sound is deep and resonant, his section playing seems effortless, his solos are rhythmic and compelling, and his intonation is flawless.
David was born in Trinidad; the island's rich musical heritage was made available to him in an invaluable way —- his father, John "Buddy" Williams, was a highly?regarded bassist who led his own calypso band

by Jack Kenny
This is late period Art Pepper, he died a year later, in 1982. The music is full of striving, intensity, urgency.
