Ron Carter - Foursight - Stockholm Vol. 2

The long awaited second part of this legendary concert! Ron Carter, the most-recorded jazz bassist in history and member of the second great Miles Davis Quintet (1963 - 1968), leads his Foursight quartet on this live recording from Sweden recorded in November 2018. The group includes drummer Payton Crossley, tenor saxophonist Jimmy Green and star pianist Renee Rosnes.

It's hard to believe that this actually took place on November 17, 2018! We listen to a jazz concert that sounds like it was recorded in the last millennium at Minton's Playhouse in New York, or perhaps in Birdland or Village Vanguard: euphoric, unique, unrepeatable, because on evenings like this everything simply fits together, the signs are favourable, the musicians really enjoy playing and the audience pushes them constantly to the absolute limit. It is not even possible to predict when such will even be possible again in the future...

If you want to decipher the secret of this legend, the two audio documents from the Swedish jazz club provide valuable insights. Following ''Stockholm Vol. 1'' (IORCD771392), the second part ''Stockholm Vol. 2'' is being released. A late work full of maturity, natural authority of numerous surprises without subsequent corrections or edits.
