Gary Karr on double bass, accompanied by Harmon Lewis on organ. The Cisco LP reissue is amazing if you can find it. This is a demo, crowd always drops jaws after hearing it. Cheers,

Looking forward to your reaction. 

This record always reminds me of a passage from an early Michael Crichton novel. A guy enters a home where his friend sits on the floor Indian style with his back towards him and a pair of headphones on his head. When he further enters the room he sees tears streaming down his friend's face. He asks what's wrong and is told "Nothing is wrong, I am listening to Albinoni's adagio.". 
Cheers,
