Born in Camden 83 years ago, bassist-composer-educator Buster Williams has solidified his position as one of the main bass proponents in jazz history. He has had extended stays in the bands of vocalists Nancy Wilson and Sarah Vaughan, fellow bassist Ron Carter and guitarist Larry Coryell, but is most known as the bassist in the groundbreaking 1970s bands of the legendary Herbie Hancock, whom he’s collaborated with ever since.
