One of my all-time fave bassists. R.I.P.

Let's list our fave tunes and/or fave collaborator(s) of Mr Haden;
Of course for me it all begins w/ Ornette Coleman. 2nd, I liked his work w/ Pat Metheny and Keith Jarrett.
"Steal Away" may be one of the most personal albums by Haden who was brought up playing Spirituals, Gospel, and Folk songs; so these songs are at the core of his being. The collaboration with Hank Jones borders on the telepathic. These two men played this music as if it was emerging from their souls. It is powerful, contemplative and serene; a very special recording under any standards. This album also may be the best one to really hear Haden’s bass. The recording has the piano on one side and the bass on the other and the level is not cut on the bass so it is truly a collaborative duet with equal voices and each partner getting equal solo time.
My most revered Charlie Haden LPs are the Old and New dreams discs.
Particularly "Playing" on ECM. Will be greatly missed.
I don't have a large number of Charlie's recordings but the "Old and New Dreams" are what gets the most play here.

Is that the guy from Ayre Acoustics?
.tick tock...tick tock..and you will vanish again...surely. And hopefully.
Are you trying to be funny? If so then that was very poor taste.
Didn't you see the OP concerned the death of Charlie Haden?
