Speaking of not going ten minutes without hearing her, once in the nineties I had the good fortune to have a lesson with her, and I took her out to dinner after (all platonic, just two musician friends). The restaurant had an “oldies” station on, and I swear that for the entire time our the meal took, for every song played either *she* had played the bass part or had been down the hall in the next studio when it was recorded, or had a funny story about how it came to be. What a joy to be with her! Then we went to the Baked Potato and had us some fine jazz!

Oh my goodness. I love Carol. And if she’s not in the R&R Hall of from then it’s a shame, because this lady’s a legend who was there almost when it started. As a bassist myself seeing this video with Carol just send chills up my spine. As a child and teenager growing up in the sixties and seventies all of those shows that she played bass was some of my favorite shows growing up. When I started playing bass I was mostly into Jameson and Babbitt at Motown. Never knowing that a young lady was creating all of those awesome beautiful bass lines on those classic songs. And of she’s right, gender don’t matter because a great musician depends on putting the work in. I hope there’s a documentary on Ms. Kaye because she’s a living legend. 4-Sure. Peace Out. 👍🏾🎼
