Art Taylor!



GREAT drumming here today featuring Art Taylor with Sonny Rollins:



Anybody have any ideas as to who that bass player is?

(Editor's note: Irish bassist/blogger Ronan Guilfoyle and a host of others have informed me that this bassist is in fact Gilbert 'Bibi' Rovére, a French bassist who played a lot with visiting American musicians)

    The bass player is Gilbert Rovere from France.
    Google for "Sonny Rollins Trio & Ornette Coleman Quartet, "The Paris Concert", 1965-11-04" to find more from them.
    It might even be the same gig as on the video since they're all wearing the same outfit.
