Time Magazine praised Stanley, Chick Corea and Kenny Garrett, while critiquing the Grammys’ short tribute to jazz piano master Dave Brubeck, in which the trio performed, saying, “Forty-five seconds is not nearly enough time when you have this much talent on stage playing tribute to jazz great Dave Brubeck. While it’s clear that the bulk of the Grammys audience is not jazz fans, less than a minute out of a three-hour show is insulting.” While giving an “F” for the time allotted, the magazine gave an A+ to performance of the trio of Clarke, Corea and Garrett in their review of the entire program.
Stanley will perform along with Chick Corea and Kenny Garrett at the 55th Annual GRAMMY Awards as part of a tribute to the late, great pianist Dave Brubeck. The 55th Annual GRAMMY Awards will take place live on Sunday, Feb. 10 at Staples Center in Los Angeles and will be broadcast on the CBS Television Network from 8–11:30 p.m. ET/PT (with the tribute scheduled to air at 10:40 PM in the ET/PT markets).

Stanley is working on a classical bass CD for the Concord/Roxboro label. He’s recently been concentrating on his interpretation of “Bach’s Cello Suite.”
Here’s a couple of great and unique gifts for any Stanley Clarke fan. Stanley created the “Four Strings” artwork now featured on new products for ACME Studios. The design was inspired by Stanley’s favorite electric and acoustic basses.
Congratulations to Stanley for winning Best Electric Bassist in Downbeat’s 2012 Reader’s Poll. Stanley thanks all the readers who voted for him and all the nominees in the magazine’s annual poll.
