SUPERSTARS WEEK - RON CARTER. "The Maestro". World's Most Revered Jazz Bassist. Miles Davis, Thelonious Monk, Many More!
Description
Welcome to SUPERSTARS WEEK! This week I’m rebroadcasting my interviews with five Superstars: Judy Collins, Al Kooper, David Amram, Ron Carter and Oscar Hammerstein II.
Ron Carter is “the Maestro”, the world’s most renowned bassist. He’s the most recorded bassist in jazz history and a 3x Grammy winner. He’s played with everyone from Cannonball Adderley to Thelonious Monk to Roberta Flack and of course with Miles Davis. He was in Miles’ quintet in the mid-60s along with Herbie Hancock, Wayne Shorter and Tony Williams - one of the greatest bands ever. He’s on the faculty of Juilliard and Berklee and has been honored with cultural awards by France and Japan.
My featured song is my version of the classic song “All Blues” from my 1994 album Child’s Play by The Robert Miller Group.
