Oscar Pettiford & Cello

In keeping with having a catch-all blog that I use more as a scratchpad than anything else, this page will contain some stuff that just will not fit in Music for Drummers. The focus is the great bassist Oscar Pettiford on cello. I should did some Charles Mingus up on cello since that genius started on that instrument, but for now I'll stay with Pettiford.

Most tracks are from In a Cello Mood and all feature Oscar playing pizzicato style. Definitely also check out The Dozens: Jazz Cello by Eric Wendell.
