Doug Watkins (2 Mar 1934–5 Feb 1962) was not a flashy bass player – but one of the greats of the modern jazz era. "A Little Bit of Basie" by the Red Garland Trio - with Specs Wright on drums:

Sticking with that smooth #jazz swing & #NowListening to #ByrdInParis by #DonaldByrd with #BobbyJaspar, #WalterDavisJunior, #DougWatkins, & #ArtTaylor - another live offering from the exceptional #SamRecords, based out of Paris.
This is a typically high quality issue - well presented, very well mastered, & impeccably pressed. The performance is really strong - you can really hear the room & the musicianship is top par.
