Edmond Gilmore: “Double Presto” from Bach’s Partita No. 1
We’ve posted plenty of bassists performing Bach, but this one takes the cake.

Wow. Absolutely stunning!
he is good!
that was great and that F-Bass sounds great too!
Are you playing along to a violin track, or are you using a synth? if it’s a synth, that’s some amazing tracking.
A+!!!
