Hardbopjazz Posted December 31, 2020 Report Posted December 31, 2020 The last survive a member of the Dave Brubeck quartet in the 50s and 60s has passed away. He was 97. RIP https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=10157853807104562&id=57080394561 Quote
GA Russell Posted January 1, 2021 Report Posted January 1, 2021 RIP Eugene Wright! Although not a name well known to the American public, think of how many households owned a record he was on. Quote

Peter Friedman Posted January 2, 2021 Report Posted January 2, 2021 Sorry to hear this sad news. Gene was a fine bass player and led a long and musically productive life. Quote
Justin V Posted January 2, 2021 Report Posted January 2, 2021 Thank you for the music, Mr. Wright, and rest in peace. Quote
mikeweil Posted January 3, 2021 Report Posted January 3, 2021 Great bass player with abig, warm sound, not just with Brubeck. I have several Cal Tjader albums with him, like this: Duncan Reid gave me a copy of the CD Wright had signed for him .... Quote
