It's likely that you've heard Ron Carter's work, though you might not know it. Carter is one of the most revered and prolific jazz bassists of all time. Featured on more than 2,500 albums, he has been an omnipresence in music for the last half-century. He rose to prominence as part of Miles Davis' Second Great Quintet and has played alongside artists ranging from Harry Connick Jr. to A Tribe Called Quest, as well as taken the lead role on dozens of his own albums. He captains grooves by tickling, thumping and caressing his double bass with the calm confidence of a master. He's a living legend, a professor emeritus with the City College of New York, and a must-see for any jazz fan.
