Victor Bailey Group: Low Blow (2010)

On this day in 1960, the great Victor Bailey was born. My introduction to him years ago was when he joined Weather Report, then his solo albums, then just about everything else I could find.

Later, I was honored to spend time with him at NAMM Shows, only to find that he was as nice a person as he was great on bass. I miss him.

In honor of his birthday, here’s a clip of Bailey and his group performing “Low Blow” at Moody’s Jazz Cafe in Foggia, Italy, in 2010.

Thank you for all the great music and inspiration, Mr. Bailey.
