RIP Bassist & NEA Jazz Master Richard Davis

[humprof]

Pop fans will know him first from Astral Weeks; jazz fans, from a thousand other places.

Damn. Almost easier to make a list of people he hasn't played with. What a career

I'll have to dig out my recently acquired MQA encoded version of ASTRAL WEEKS and listen intently for Davis' inventive bass lines.

This man WAS an absolute genius!

May he R.I.P.
