It is Marc Johnson on bass, Jack DeJohnette on drums (???), John 
Scofield and Bill Frisell on guitars. (I thinks that's it.)

My favorite tune on Bass Desires is "Samurai Heehaw."

Did any of you Frisell fans catch the half hour animated Far Side 
cartoon on network TV a few years back? Mr. Frisell did the score for 
that one. There was almost no dialog: just some very sensitive 
accompaniment to Gary Larsen's creation.
Some loops in that one, too.
