Decided to search Marc on KZbin, crazy to see my uncle in such a different way. To me he was always "my uncle who plays the bass", and as an adult I knew he was one of the greats, but to see him in such a professional light is awesome.

That’s amazing! It’s hard to overstate Marc’s contribution to the bass world and jazz music in general. His music means so much to so many.

From my point of view as a pianist, he is one of the greatest bass players. His tone, his feel- love it. His work with Bill Evans is amazing as is his playing with Enrico Pieranunzi.

Thanks so much Dan. It was a real joy getting to meet Marc and it's so cool to hear you enjoyed his music as much as I did. His work with Enrico Pieranunzi is so inventive and rich! I love it.

I was at UNT at the same time as Marc. He was always carrying his big upright bass around campus, and he always had a smile. It’s gratifying to see him get so much love as an artist.

That's wonderful. He's a very special person. It sounds like a UNT must have been a wonderful place to study.

That’s so cool! Although I’m an electric player I’ve loved Marc Johnson’s playing, sound & compositions since discovering him in the late 80s’ with Bass Desires. Thanks for sharing.

What mic is being used there? U87?
@DiscoverDoubleBass6 ай бұрын
I can't remember, but it wasn't a u87. Possibly an M47 or perhaps a replica of one.
