A double bass is the best instrument to pair with vocals

If forced to choose one today it's piano. Tomorrow who knows!

Musica Nuda nicely pairs double bass with a female vocal. 

Beat this :

Sinne Eeg : Staying in Touch

Musicianship and recording are out of this world!

@mike_in_nc  Leonard Cohen was a near-incomparable songwriter with an unforgettable, wrenchingly evocative baritone. Where Taylor wrote nothing, Cohen wrote widely and profoundly; where Cohen's work is endlessly covered by others, Taylor made travesty covers of the work of others, Cohen included -- his "interpretations" invariably clueless, lifeless, dumbed-down, always missing both the point and the mood, and recorded with the dynamics of dishrags. Taylor's voice -- a thin, reedy tenor with no range -- wouldn't have made him soloist in your average metropolitan church choir. You ask me to compare a world-class original solo genius vs. a talentless mooch born into the right social class at the right moment, getting through by licking the boots of the great artists: Mark Knopfler, Joni Mitchell, Carole King, Elvis Costello, even Neil Young once, who allowed him to perform with them, presumably out of charity? His ex-wife Carly Simon had more talent in her toenails than poor Jim on his best day. Who can imagine Taylor writing or performing something equal to "The Way I've Always Heard It Should Be?"

Hick,

So you don’t like JT?  Is that your point?  Others might not agree…I hope you can accept that.
