Ron Carter, the most recorded jazz bassist in history

This recognition from the Guinness World Records came at the end of 2015, but still worth a mention a year later! 2,221 individual recordings as of September 2015.

I don't suspect this record will be surpassed anytime soon...

Anyone have a favorite among the 2,221 recordings?

My favorite new recording with Ron Carter was released in 2016, so this might just be recording #2,222:

This album was ranked ranked #7 in 2016 by Stereogum in their 10 Best Jazz Albums of 2016 list:

And ranked #15 on the Jazzwise Magazine (UK) Top 20 Jazz Albums of 2016 list:
