Masters Legacy Series Volume 2 is a record that simultaneously features and pays tribute to Sir Ron Carter. Carter is among the most original, prolific, and influential bassists in jazz.

Is there any way you can go wrong when you pick up a record that says Ron Carter on the cover? Especially when he's given the space and respect to do things his way? I think not!

Killer stuff by pros that are shining. - Chris Spector --Midwest Record
