LEGENDS OF JAZZ BASS - PAUL CHAMBERS

Paul is yet another guy who played with Miles Davis early in his career. One of the more famous recordings of Mr. Chambers is on the tune 'So What' off the Kind of Blue album.

He is one of the first jazz bassists to use the bow while playing. Mr. Chambers was also known as a studio musician, and played with many of the jazz greats, including Thelonious Monk, John Coltrane and Oliver Nelson.

Paul was also a great bass soloist. Let's see and hear some of his great playing here:
