Our Take

Ah, the double bass. The unsung hero of the orchestra, the big daddy of the strings. And what better way to celebrate this powerhouse of an instrument than with a compilation album like "Portrait Of The Double Bass." Various Artists have come together to pay tribute to the double bass in all its glory, and boy, do they deliver.

From the jazzy plucking of "Walking Bassline Blues" to the soulful crooning of "Bowed Elegance," this album has it all. Each track showcases the versatility and depth of the double bass, proving once and for all that this instrument is more than just a support player in the background.

Standout tracks include the hauntingly beautiful "Arco Lament" and the funk-infused "Slap Happy." These songs will have you tapping your feet and nodding your head in appreciation of the sheer talent and skill on display.

While some may write off the double bass as a one-trick pony, this album proves them all wrong. "Portrait Of The Double Bass" is a must-listen for any music lover, showcasing the true artistry and potential of this often overlooked instrument. So sit back, crank up the volume, and let the deep, rich tones of the double bass wash over you. Trust me, you won't be disappointed.
