Ron Carter on The EVR Jazz Show October 16th

Tune into The East Village Radio Jazz Show at 2PM ET this Friday, October 16th, as we celebrate Rontober with the jazz legend, bass extraordinaire, the Maestro, Ron Carter!

Holding the Guiness World Record as the most recorded jazz bassist in history with over 2,200 album credits, Ron Carter’s iconic sound defined the legendary Miles Davis Quintet (1963-1968) and elevated landmark albums such as Maiden Voyage (Herbie Hancock) and Speak No Evil (Wayne Shorter). Beyond jazz, his genre-spanning career includes landmark sessions with Roberta Flack, Gil Scott-Heron, Paul Simon, Billy Joel and A Tribe Called Quest on The Low End Theory.

A three-time Grammy winner, NEA Jazz Master and Distinguished Professor Emeritus at CCNY, Carter continues to tour globally, publish essential instructional works and inspire generations of musicians.
