William Parker is considered by many to be the greatest bassist ever to have played avant-garde jazz. A core member of the Cecil Taylor Unit in the 80's, Parker has played with such talents as Bill Dixon, Jemeel Moondoc, Charles Gayle, and Roscoe Mitchell. Rick Lopez has conscientiously documented this sessionography, which is the most comprehensive listing of all, with painstaking research.
