Ist Ray Brown der bekannteste Bassist des Jazz? Die Antwort lautet vielleicht gut möglich und ist sowohl in Sachen Ruhm als auch Einfluss des legendären Mannes aus Pittsburgh eigentlich unerheblich. Warum also die Frage? Nun, Ray Brown spielte mit Charlie Parker, Dizzy Gillespie, Bud Powell, Ella Fitzgerald, Oscar Peterson, The Modern Jazz Quartet und Milt Jackson, um nur ein paar seiner musikalischen Arbeitgeber und Mitstreiter zu nennen. Das Schöne an Ray Brown war, das er immer zu den aktiven Legenden gehörte und mit Musikern von Quincy Jones bis Russell Malone ständig unterwegs war.
By the time you have finished listening to this album I hope you have the same reaction that I did. That Ray Brown, one of the truly great bass players of jazz, will be one of its great cello players. The step from playing bass to cello might appear to be a comparatively easy one, especially for a man who has won more jazz polls than he can remember, yet the transition was not as smooth as you'd expect. As Ray soon learned, the cello, compared with the bass, was small and consequently difficult to play in tune. Those very drawbacks, however, were momentous ones. What Ray discovered and what he did about it is a story in itself for his subsequent experiments on the instrument have resulted in a revolutionary development.
Out of his experiments he has devised a new type of cello, especially for jazzmen, so much easier to play that it could likely bring to prominence a new school of jazz cello exponents. Not that the cello hasn't already played its part in jazz; among some of its most notable exponents have been Harry Babasin, Fred Katz, A1 Hall, Keter Betts, Sam Jones and, of course, the most distinguished of all, the late Oscar Pettiford. It was Pettiford, in fact, who first persuaded Ray to try out the cello a few years ago, but he wasn't too interested at the time.
