I adore those albums with Paul Desmond and Jim Hall. So killer.
I too like the albums of which you speak, they are a little tangential to the piece I linked above which was a sneaky Double Take Five misdirect.
apologies.
Hah. Bass player here, too. Although I only play the electric. Haven't had a chance to do the upright (or uptight even!). Needless to say, I only play rock / blues stuff, though I do love listening to Jazz. Brubeck is a perennial fav of mine.
