Billy the Celloist plays Bach at the local coffee shop - his job. I suggested that he record the Bach Suites at home. A couple of days later this CD arrived of Billy playing Bach and other things. As you can hear for yourselves, it's very interesting and beautiful playing; the phrasing, the rhythmic suppleness and buoyancy, the aliveness and humanness of Billy's playing are meaningful and compelling. And swinging. Reminding me a little, in a way, of Buell Neidlinger's great bass playing, it is like telling a story, sounding improvised on the spot. Thanks, Billy.
