I hate to hear people say bassists "anchor" a group. As the great Ron Carter explained, an anchor weighs things down! I prefer to think of bassists and rhythm sections in general providing a vital pulse - hence the title. Another one of my tributes to bass players! This is pastel on black paper, as are several of my musician figures. I think it helps with the chiaroscuro and the intimate atmosphere of the jazz club.
