Many of us are big fans of his so I just wanted to pass on the news in case anyone has not heard.

He's one of the pillars of bass playing. Get well soon, Chuck! edwin Senior Member Username: edwin Post Number: 1065 Registered: 5-2002 Posted on Tuesday, November 08, 2011 - 9:36 pm:    Apparently he's expected to make a full recovery!

Chuck's playing on here is great. I really love what he's doing on 'woody and dutch on the slow train to peking'. One cool feature - the sleeve notes have Steve Gadd on 'boxes and thighs' on the same track :-) Graeme
