No mention in that article about his work with the other great Thompson? For shame

Well, quite… but there’s a very long list of performers and bands he collaborated with. Virtuoso

Very sad news, my dad bought his first (and likely only) double bass from him. Great player, great guy. Lived a life!

Saw them perform together as a duo around the release of "Industry". Both absolute legends and a fantastic gig. RIP Danny.
