Pim Posted June 14, 2021 Report Share Posted June 14, 2021 (edited) I totally missed this but apparently some two months ago Swiss bassist Isla Eckinger died. His contributions to Mal Waldron’s albums like Free At Last, Spanish Bitch and Hard Talk were very, very good. The first time I heard him play I was really pleasantly surprised. https://www.onlinereports.ch/News.117+M57b97e7eb1c.0.html rip Edited June 14, 2021 by Pim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Friedman Posted June 14, 2021 Report Share Posted June 14, 2021 Eckinger was a very fine bass player. Need to check out some of the recordings I have with him. R.I.P. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
