Christian McBride
Acoustic Bass Solo on
From This Moment On

About

Christian McBride's acoustic bass solo is the closing of 2 solos on this recording, following Brad Mehldau's piano. Spanning two choruses of the 68-bar AABA' form at a brisk 322 BPM with a swing feel in F, the solo runs approximately 1:41. The performance showcases the rhythm section of McBride and Brian Blade, whose powerful, interactive approach provides a different but equally thrilling foundation compared to the Grenadier-Rossy trio heard elsewhere on the album. Christian McBride was 22 to 23 years old at the time of this 1995 recording. "From This Moment On" is a popular song composed by Cole Porter in 1950.
