Frank Macchia wrote on July 04, 2008I was incredibly lucky enough to have Dave play on two of my CDs. I was talking to Billy Childs who was going to play piano on the session and I told him I had Vinnie Coliauta on drums and asked him who he thought I should have play bass. Without a hesitation he said Dave Carpenter, and I was so glad that I had him playing my music. He was so musical, and had the greatest attitude about making the music sound right. I had a difficult bass line on on song that he had to play non-stop for over five minutes and he never complained about it, even with doing multiple takes. I would see him frequently at local jazz clubs and he was always so friendly. I am so sad by his passing, but feel so lucky to have known him. God bless you, Dave.
