 | | Sam Jones [+], a greatly in-demand bassist who often teamed up with drummer Louis Hayes [+], was also a talented jazz cello soloist. |
 | | While a member of Cannonball Adderley [+]'s very successful quintet (1959-1965), Jones wrote such originals as "Unit 7" and "Del Sasser" and led three highly recommended albums for Riverside during 1960-1962 (all have been reissued in the OJC series) that featured some of his finest cello playing. |
 | | Sam Jones [+] was with the Oscar Peterson Trio (as Ray Brown [+]'s first replacement) during 1966-1970 and then freelanced for the remainder of his life, making many recordings, including albums of his own for East Wind (1974), Xanadu, Muse, Inner City, SteepleChase, Interplay, and SeaBreeze. |
