Tonight on "bass week", it's "Yesterdays" from Paul Chambers' album "Bass on Top". I've posted another song from this album before, but it fits this week's theme well, so why not. Chambers plays the bass arco throughout, relying on guitarist Kenny Burrell to set the harmonic rhythm. I just love the deep resonating sound he produces.

Personnel:

  • Paul Chambers - bass
  • Kenny Burrell - guitar
  • Hank Jones - piano
  • Art Taylor - drums
