Four-time Grammy™ winner Stanley Clarke is quite possibly the most celebrated acoustic and electric bassist in the world. A performer, composer, conductor, arranger, recording artist, producer and film scorer who is known for his ferocious dexterity and consummate musicality, Clarke is a true pioneer in jazz and of the bass itself. Unquestionably, he is a “living legend.” His 40-plus-year career as a bass virtuoso has graced him with the honor of every conceivable award available to a musician.
I had the pleasure of photographing Stanley Clark at Variety Playhouse in Atlanta, Ga. and I have to say, if he comes to your city you must see him.
Below are highlights of the evening:
