Jay Anderson
Acoustic Bass Solo on
Don't Get Around Much Anymore

About

Jay Anderson's acoustic bass solo closes out the improvised statements on this recording, following Joe Magnarelli's trumpet. Spanning one chorus of the 32-bar AABA form at a relaxed 96 BPM with a swing feel in C, the solo runs approximately 1:21. Anderson follows with a single chorus of acoustic bass improvisation that maintains the unhurried, swinging groove. Duke Ellington's "Don't Get Around Much Anymore" receives a medium-tempo swing treatment on Stephen Riley's 2018 album Oleo. Jay Anderson was 62 to 63 years old at the time of this 2018 recording.
