Miroslav Vitouš - Emergence (1986)


ECM ambient jazz from double-bassist Miroslav Vitous, whose instrument is the only present component in this record. Passionate and skillful playing.

I normally like to share youtube links from songs to give a taste of the album, but I can't find anything on youtube from this one.

Yep this is it

Ron Carter - Empire Jazz (1980)


Ron Carter interpretations of John Williams' themes from The Empire Strikes Back, accompanied by a stellar line-up consisting of Jon Faddis, Joe Shepley, Eddie Bert, Hubert Law, Frank Wess, Bob James, Jay Berliner, Ralph MacDonald and Billy fucking Cobham. Quite a relaxing and easy-listening record.
