    Have to confess that electric bass (in jazz) is frequently disappointing me .... don`t think being a purist, but it is amatter of sound .... can`t say too much about Dexter in the recordings you`ve mentioned, but believe he cut great stuff in the late 60`s/early 70`s with "acoustic guys" like Buster William, Stanley Clarke, Jacky Samson or Martin Rivera .... P.S Congrats on the smilies !!

    So let`s make it a bass thread for now .... if being handicaped healthwise frustration is a big factor, no question about it .... but the recorded Mingus legacy verifies, that he didn`t romaticise the past but really had "the chops" for the vast part of his active career ..... Regarding Eddie Gomez, his "high register action" was/is not impressive for me either .... btw really like his playing on Steps "Smokin`In The Pit", a live recording in Tokyo frm December 1980 ....

    A "right/perfect" Beethoven 6 is based on personal judgement and so ist the evaluation of the Monteux/VPO performance (which is highly regarded with some) .... No benchmarking here from my side, just some examples of (IMO) interesting views on Beethoven`s 6th ....

    Quote He said "they don´t have chops to play the bass" and pointed out that he had to cut through the band when their was no amplifiers. Unquote Obviously Mingus whad the personality documented in-depth, but this statement - even if exaggerating - is worth some afterthoughts ....

    James Govan "I'm In Need" (Charly) 1980 .... recorded in the early 80's @ Quinvy Studios this Muscle Shoals Swampers supported effort turns out to be a masterpiece of countryfied Southern Soul ....
