The moment that no-one has been waiting for. The complete 10:45 minute bass performance of the tune 'Mr. B. (For Ray Brown)' from the 1998 Dave Holland Quintet album, 'Points of View'. A monster chart. Tough to read and tough to play but so much learning in there.

The opposite of the Holland track but I think I would prefer to have had this one on my CV. The complete bass performance (unknown - could have been one of 4 people - see the blurb on the website) of Joni Mitchells 2000 version of 'Both Sides Now'. Simple but perfect.

I'm a recent convert to Joni Mitchell probably in last 10yrs. She has some beautiful songs including this one. I prefer her "Wild Things Run Fast" era but i'm sure i'll end up listening to more of her earlier albums too. So much talent.

With regards simple bass lines, your comment reminded me of my first bass lesson back in mid 70's.

Simple times Rob.
