Free flight and great dynamic delight for both the audience and the jazz men! Thanks for the top show, Milcho - down memory lane!

Jim Lacefield was my mentor on electric bass, circa mid 70's when he was first chair bass player at N.T.S.U.!

he taught me how to hold it, nothing touched the bass neck but your thumb & rotation of fingers...

I was so saddened by his passing.

He was going to fing me a better practice amp...he found it, like it so much...he kept it!

I'll never forget Jim Lacefield!

I love that you posted this! Still have the vinyl of this from the 80's. Would love it you'd put Blue Rondo a la Turk in the search words section. I was looking for their version of it and almost missed this. Thanks!
