Mark Stryker Posted June 9, 2020 Report Share Posted June 9, 2020 (edited) Rara Avis A 50-minute snapshot of casual straight ahead-jazz in New York in 1976 at Boomer's (340 Bleeker in the Village). Kenny Barron, Bob Berg, Al Foster and a bass player I don't immediately recognize. Anyone know who it is? And does anyone have any ideas who filmed this and why? As always, Barron is unruffled and consistent, and Foster in particular is playing his ass off. My best guesses for the bass player are Bob Cunningham or a young Charles Fambrough, but as I said, I don't recognize him.

mjzee Posted June 10, 2020 Report Share Posted June 10, 2020 This might have been on one of cable's public access channels. Per Ethan Iverson, the bassist is Charles Fambrough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
