Bassist who enjoyed a thirty-year career as a session musician, recording with Tony Bennett, John Lennon , and Barbra Streisand. A pair of ’70s albums he appeared on are Joe Farrell’s 1978 release, Night Dancing, and Frank Sinatra’s 1979 boxed set, Trilogy.
He has also enjoyed an approximately forty-year career as a stringed-instrument repairer and restorer. About ten of those years were spent learning the trade at Robertson & Sons in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Since then, he and his son Geoffrey have opened their own violin shop, where they give basses, cellos, violas and violins the full-service treatment. If you stop in the Daugherty Violin Shop in Eureka, California, you can also buy or rent stringed instruments. Photography is also a key function of their business.
