Red Mitchell talks extensively about making the switch to a bass
tuned in fifths in an interview in Art Taylor's _Notes and Tones_.
I love Red's playing -- he is very underrated, IMO.
Maybe so - but certainly not by me!
Solos of Mozartean perfection, the most highly developed melodic
sense of any bassist I've heard, and superb playing of the
instrument. My goal - to play solos as good as Red and Oscar Pettiford.
