Bass on Top puts Paul Chambers’ double bass at the centre, carrying melodies and extended solos in an unusual twist on the jazz combo. Highlights include the bowed, melancholy opening of “Yesterdays,” Kenny Burrell’s expressive guitar, and playful exchanges with drummer Art Taylor. A distinctive Blue Note session, with a familiar songbook and an adventurous approach to the bass.
