La Música





Two more bass players, spanning both ends of the tradition. The young guy is Lawrence Hsu, son of my friend Clara. He plays in a band called Phoenix Ashes. The other, in the Mao cap, backed up Peter Tosh sometime in the '70s. Of course, the classic undercover act is Ernest Ranglin (below)... Maybe that "bass" line I like so much is actually played on an arch-top...?
