We discovered this video thanks to MarloweDK, featuring bassist Ron Hall taking an extended bass solo, live at a club in Chicago. Funky!

It’s funny how an “extended” bass solo is only two minutes long.
How long do you think a normal bass solo is during a tune?
He probably never touched a bass…
As a bassist, I’d say an hour or 2 is good with me.
speaking of bass solo, after years listening bass heros in solo works, like patitucci, jaco, miller, wooten, and many others superstars, i was suprised how i was blown by a solo so musical by willie weeks on live album by Donny hathaway. not about how long is, not even how fast he can play, just how musical one bassist can be! its just wonderful!
