In the early 1980's, the enduring love affair between American and Brazilian musicians took a new turn when it was announced that super-producer
was looking for a special Brazilian touch on an upcoming album for jazz guitar great
It was percussionist Paulinho da Costa who introduced Quincy to Ivan's music.
The result was 'Dinorah, Dinorah', a Lins original that was included on Benson's million-selling 'Give Me the Night'.

It’s all about bass and working with great people on the highest level possible. It’s my primary goal to make those around me sound great and to have a good time in the process. This bass continues to blow people and the competition out of the water. Thanks again for this awesome instrument!
Sincerely, James Simonson
