Join me for the Feb. 3, 2020, edition of After Hours on KCAW Raven Radio as I’m joined in conversation with the great American jazz double bassist, Ron Carter.
His appearances on 2,221 recording sessions make him the most recorded jazz bassist in history. Ron is also a cellist who has recorded numerous times on that instrument. He was a member of the Miles Davis Quintet in the mid 1960s, which also included pianist Herbie Hancock, saxophonist Wayne Shorter and drummer Tony Williams.
He was elected to the Downbeat Jazz Hall of Fame in 2012. In 1993, Ron won a Grammy Award for Best Jazz Instrumental Group and another Grammy in 1998 for an instrumental composition for the film “Round Midnight.” Be sure to tune into this incredible and unforgettable conversation.
