Mostly known for the Headhunters and H. Hancock tenure, but he played on a bunch of my favorites from that era, like this: [video:youtube] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Docbop Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 I was a bass player back in the day when the Headhunters album came out and totally blown away by Herbie and equally as much Paul Jackson. Thank you Paul for you inventive and soulful lines you shared with us. RIP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sad to see him go.
