About Ron Carter & Golden Striker Trio
MiLes Davis referred to Carter as "Checkpoint Charlie," and first introduced him, along with Herbie Hancock and Tony Williams during his recording sessions in the early 60s. Carter has since become the most recorded bassist in history with 2,221 recording credits, verified by the Guinness Book of World Records in 2015.

A drummerless trio, "Golden Striker needs no drummer to swing. On pieces like the bassist's own 25-year-old composition "N.Y. Slick," he generates a unique momentum that is a Ron Carter signature: headlong, yet measured." (Jazz Times).

As Carter says, "I think that the bassist is the quarterback in any group, and he must find a sound that he is willing to be responsible for."
