  • Your Favorite Jazz Piano & Bass Duets

    Some of my favorite jazz albums are piano and upright bass duets. Please name some of your favorite albums. I'll get it started with Kenny Barron and Dave Holland - The Art of Conversation.

    Thanks,
    Ken

          Walked into to my local record store today and found a 1975 Pablo of this for $7. It is excellent!

              Man I'm searching through my collection and can't pull many duets out. I do have the Blanton Gus mentioned above. Does Duets count with Wasserman? Or maybe Ella's Let No Man Write My Epitaph? Vocals and piano.

                Duets was what came to my mind.

                unless Bennett is playing an upright bass that's not what the OP is asking for.

              Here are two more CDs that are smooth and mellow with beautifully recorded jazz standards.

              The CDs are Last Dance and Jasmine.
              Keith Jarrett - Piano
              Charlie Haden - Double Bass

              Best,
              Ken
