Charnett Moffett: Music From Our Soul

by Dan Bilawsky
Bassist Charnett Moffett is one of those figures that we tend to take for granted, mostly because it seems like he's simply always been here.

But nothing good lasts forever, and no particular musical style stays popular for long. As bop and soul faded, so did Blue ...
