Ron Carter is a name that carries tremendous weight so I’m very optimistic about that one.

I hope it doesn't disappoint. This one is actually I have in my CD collection. The first time I heard the album it was played in a restaurant. I asked the waiter who were they playing and they said Ron Carter. I had to buy the album. It combines my love for J.S. Back and the double bass.

My copy is ripped from vinyl. It's a great album, just not in that many formats online.

Wow. The lack of love or even downright hate for this record is unbelievable.

Especially since it’s unbelievably good. Thanks

Well

This wraps up this experiment

Thanks for the suggestions everyone

Ron Carter Meets Bach is one of my atf instrumental albums. I can't believe how salty this guy was:

Mastery of baroque music? Comparing this album to even the worst release by any professional classical musician is like comparing the literary value of the babbles of an agitated goat to that of Hamlet. With this recording, Ron Carter gives us an accurate picture of who he is: no longer the great bassist who accompanied Miles Davis, but an arrogant fool who at some point decided that any piece of ... that he recorded was worthy of mass distribution.
I am hesitant to submit this review because I do not think that words can adequately capture just how bad this recording really is. Let me start by saying that Ron's intonation is so terrible that the only thing that could prepare me for it would be a sticker on the front reading "Ron Carter's first release since he switched to playing lefty." His arco technique is almost as bad; it sounds as if he used a stick of crazy glue instead of rosin.
The Arioso did not move me "to tears", but rather to a feeling of sea sickness; in several spots I could swear he's actually trying to modulate. Ron's rendition of the "Air" had me examining the CD for warping. His improvising on several pieces shows an almost unfathomable lack of focus; it consisted of Ron's typical arsenal of semi-slick sounding bass tricks removed from the usual jazz context and forced awkwardly in between two Bach pieces. At several points he clearly runs out of stuff to play, pauses, and then resumes his flurries of gibberish and gratuitous glissandos. I could go on but suffice it to say that there is not a single redeeming moment on this whole album.
Ron, if you're reading, you owe me 15 bucks.

Thanks for this thread. I don't always get the chance to share albums and get feedback telling me they enjoyed them too.
