Reverence [LP]

Cameroonian bassist and singer Richard Bona has played with Joe Zawinul, Pat Metheny and George Benson, and his 2001 second album Reverence shows why he's so admired. Rooted in African rhythms and storytelling, it mixes jazz, bossa nova, pop, afrobeat and funk, with Metheny guesting on 'Reverence (The Story of a Miracle)'.
