Wayman Tisdale - The Absolute Greatest Hits (2013)

2013 compilation of the finest recordings from the late Smooth Jazz bassist Wayman Tisdale, featuring George Duke and Toby Keith. Wayman Tisdale was an All-American at The University of Oklahoma, gold-medal winner in the 1984 Olympic games and NBA star for the Indiana Pacers, Sacramento Kings and Phoenix Suns. A self-taught musician, Tisdale began playing the bass guitar during his father's Sunday services. As his basketball career was ending, he turned his focus to his self-described "first love" with the release of his debut jazz album 'Power Forward', which climbed to number four on the Billboard charts. In his short musical career he released nine eclectic jazz albums - four of which hit #1 on the US jazz charts.
