The man, the myth, the legend. My all time favorite double bassist. Rest in peace Mr. P.C. Your legacy will forever influence generations of jazz bassists to come.
I fell madly in love 😍 with Paul Chambers sound and style of playing the Upright Bass; he’s absolutely #1 and certainly was a genius!😮💨Thank you so much for sharing; I’ll always come back and listen to this amazing story of Mr P C! 🙋🏽♀️
Wow! Thank you for this awesome comment. Yes, to me he is definitely in the top 10 of all bassists. If you want to hear about another legendary bassist, check out my newest Spotlight on Israel Cachao Lopez.
Thanks for this. These kind of perspectives in jazz are profoundly inspiring for me and seriously boosts the attention - all of us should pay to giants of the art. Many thanks!
Incredible amount of work he put in . I suppose because they recorded live it was possible to record so much music but they are all classic lps the ones you mentioned. High standard of musicianship every day.
Another great spotlight, Carlos! He was definitely a prolific bassist. His contribution was so large to jazz and he paved the way for bass players in the future. Have been enjoying this series!
@@AsTheTableTurns someone I know would be the most interesting to me, but also it’s cool to learn more about people that I know of but don’t know a lot about!
Paul Chambers was and is the most important bassist in Jazz. If you don't agree, tell me anyone who could swing so hard yet relaxed as he did. When he played in Miles first quintet - that's when the band really swung.
Thank you for doing Paul Chambers! He is one of my idols in music :) I mentioned it on another one of your videos, but please do some more spotlights on various jazz Double bassists. If you need any names, I’ve got some really great suggestions like Oscar Pettiford, NHØP, Pearcy Heath, Ray Brown, Israel Crosby, Jimmy Blanton, Milt Hinton, Scott Lafaro, Sam Jones, Ron Carter, Eddie Gomez, Stanley Clarke, etc… I could go on for days, lol. But if you could do some of them, I would sure love that :-D Take care!
He was born in 1935 ? My mother was born in 1934 and passed away in 2021 . I know lots of people this age . It really is a shame he didn’t live longer and play more . I personally would have been first in line to see him play if he appeared in London. He was one of the greatest ever . In the 1980s I did see Art Blakey , Horace Silver , Sun Ra , Miles Davis , Joe Henderson, Pharoah Saunders and many more . The 80s were a golden era with the re release of the Blue Note lps and being able to see these men at work live . Lou Donaldson was another classic gig with Herman Foster on piano
@@AsTheTableTurns others seen in the 80s were Freddie Hubbard , Mcoy Tyner , Ray Brown , Cedar Walton . The 80s 40 years after the inception of Bebop but it breaks my heart not to have seen Paul Chambers . Bobby Timmons too , wished he could have stayed around and he was younger . Big losses . These gigs were at Ronnie Scott’s club in London. Thank you
Yeah, and constantly touring with either the Miles Davis Quintet, the Red Garland Trio or the Wynton Kelly Trio. Plus gigs as a leader from his albums.
@@AsTheTableTurns I sub to a lot of music channels and after watching your video I came upon an album with Paul Chambers on it. He really was everywhere.

I know you did this some time ago but this is fantastic. I’m a huge Chambers fan and learned some stuff! That’s what it’s all about. Take care.
Thank you! Yeah, I need to keep this series going.
Really enjoyed this, there is not enough information on such a legendary man , my favorite bass player
Thanks for watching!

After all this time, the intro to So What still gives me goosebumps. I'm glad I discovered your Channel; keep up the great work. New Subcriber.
Thank you! Yeah, I need to start doing these again.

Thanks, Joe! Do you like the episodes better when I spotlight someone you know, somewhat know or have never heard of before? Thanks for watching!

This is a great video. Thank you
Thank you!
Paul Chambers was amazing Carlos. His classical training and the fact that he played other instruments in his youth made him such a great bassist
This video is amazing
Thank you!
Great presentation!
Thank you!
I love this music

Thank you! I will definitely keep them in mind. The next bassist I was going to do is Israel "Cachao" Lopez. Do you know him?

Paul Chambers is a giant in the world of jazz. Bass solos in the Miles Davis band pretty much stopped after PC. That says a lot.
Miles Davis' longest serving sideman. The man, the myth, the legend. Mr. Paul Chambers.
24 albums per year plus constantly touring. I don't know when the man slept.

@@mistery-ed7900 I think you can find his face under the word, “Prolific” in the dictionary.
He probably didn't
