A Jazz Master having a good time, February 20, 2003
This review is from: So What (Audio CD)
Bassist Ron Carter stands today as a living Jazz legend. His tenure with Miles Davis established him as one of the masters of the acoustic bass, and thankfully, he is still around making great music. When I listen to this album, I get a feeling that he was not too "cerebral" about it. He just gathered two brilliant musicians, and let the music happen in an easygoing flow among them. For masters like Ron, Kenny and Lewis, great things happen even if they don't break a sweat. From the ligthly swung version of "So What", to Ron's own joyfully simple melodies, this album is just a great example of cohesive and inspired Jazz trio playing.

SO WHAT do you think?, January 14, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: So What (Audio CD)
Ron Carter begins this CD by paying tribute to his old friend and bandmate, Miles Davis. By opening with So What, Carter establishes a sense of laid back, but at the same time grooving, music. The trio lays down some great trakcs that will get your foot tapping in no time. The four Carter compostions on the CD show what a good trio should do, play together with ease and enjoyment.

I liked this because is was melow, interesting., July 25, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: So What (Audio CD)
There is little difference between this melow music and the type of music I would play when I was up all night. It is complex but does not clash like some of Chic Corea's music. A bit more gentle.
