One of the most gifted, influential, and ubiquitous jazz bassists of the 20th century, Ron Carter made his name in the early 1960s in the bands of Miles Davis, Eric Dolphy, Cannonball Adderley, Thelonious Monk, and others. His unique combination of technical facility, visceral swing, and innate melody made him one of the most in-demand session players for decades, and he recorded with innumerable top-flight musicians, including George Benson, Sonny Rollins, and Stanley Turrentine. Somehow, he's found time over the years to maintain a solo career as well, composing his own material and leading a variety of all-star bands onstage and in the studio.
