I'm looking for something up tempo Jazz music. My favorite Jazz instruments is the Bass. I don't care if the music is a Classic Jazz CD or something Brand New.

Can anybody recommend a Funky Jazz CD?

get some marcus miller or wayman tisdale. you'll like those.

Any Lenny White CD. He's a drummer (SO funky) and he features the best bassists -- Marcus Miller, Victor Bailey. Anthony Jackson, too -- I think.

Any Stanley Clarke

Weather Report (Jaco!)

Thanks you guys! I will definitely check those CD's out.

charles mingus - mingus mingus mingus (mingus is on of the greatest jazz bass players and this record ist very fast and wild, but there many other great recordings from him!)

two other very good up tempo/jazz fusions recordings are

miles davis - on the corner
herbie hancock - head hunters
