Chuck Deardorf - Transparence [CD]

Veteran acoustic & electric bassist Chuck Deardorf brings together a broad collection of musical friends to create an album full of spontaneous interaction, gritty grooves and melodic beauty. Along with pianists Bill Mays & Jovino Santos Neto, guitarists Bruce Forman, Dave Peterson & Rick Peckham, as well as a host of other world-class players, Deardorf explores fresh originals, reconstructed standards and even a new take on the Beatles' "Dear Prudence," displaying the creative vision that has made him a favorite musical partner to the countless jazz legends he's accompanied over the years."Chuck is one of my favorite bassists... one of the finest working today" - Bud Shank.
