BBD Holiday Retrospective: Looking Back At 2024
What a year in the Berklee Bass Dept! As you will see in the video, so many great visiting artists, students, faculty, and administration.
Just a reminder on our “process”. During each residency, at the end, I usually bring the artist into my office to record for no more than 10-15 minutes, to a predefined tempo. They are not playing with any other track than the drum loop. I may call out keys or “concepts”, but they are free to play whatever they feel. We also try to capture video of these sessions.

    For some reason when that cassette flashed up at 2:12, I saw Steve's name, and I think I had Vic's name in my head or something, because my brain just smooshed their names together into Victor Bailey, a former Berklee faculty member who's no longer with us, and it just cracked my heart open. I'm putting his Low Blow album on and listening to it a couple times today. I'd like to think that Victor B. is looking down on this tune and smiling, Steve. Bravo.

    15:47 - wow, just realised that was 1963, Art Farmer, Jim Hall and Walter Perkins were the band at the Half Note gig when Ron left the gig to go play w/ Miles, that means that that's when Steve Swallow joined as Carter's replacement and they ended up recording the Art Farmer Quartet W/ Jim Hall Live @ The Half Note album, a really great record. PS: This is an awesome gathering, might as well be the ultimate bass summit. Thanks for sharing.
