Soul Stream Posted April 18, 2003 Report Share Posted April 18, 2003 I really admire Carson Smith's basswork on the various Chico Hamilton, Chet Baker, ect.. pacific Jazz stuff. What became of him? Did he die or continue to work...seems like the trail of recordings ended fairly early for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Nessa Posted April 19, 2003 Report Share Posted April 19, 2003 When Uptown issued the Chet Baker Boston 1954, about 10 years ago, I spoke to Carson on the phone. I sent him a bunch of cds and he was most pleased. I have not heard anything about him since then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
