My Take
Tell me someone held down the bass in Keith Jarrett's European Quartet from 1974 to 1979 and I'm already listening differently. Those records are sacred to a certain kind of jazz fan, and Danielsson was the gravitational centre that let the others fly. The double bass is the most thankless instrument in the room, invisible until it falters, and he made invisibility into an art. Coming from a musical family with a pianist sister, the language was clearly in his blood. He passed in 2024 at 77, but that deep, patient low end is permanent. I save my loudest applause for the people who anchor.
