Not only is King an amazing bass player but MY GOD what a FANTASTIC musician. I remember buying this album when it came out & it just blew me away. Mr King you are just one of the GREATEST musicians that has EVER lived:-)
Mark always quotes John Mclaughlin/Jack Bruce as being big influences in his playing....he never mentions latin jazz as being an influence....its so evident
With the time limit on YT videos now having been increased, is there a chance to post the full version of 'the essential' ?
