Julian Vaughn released his new album “Solo” last month. If you are a fan of Wayman Tisdale, you will definitely dig Julian. Performing two cuts from his previous albums, Julian and his band are locked in on “You’re Mine” and “Black Dynamite”.

Marcus Miller is back with another video from his residency at the Blue Note in New York. Marcus and the band take on the Aretha Franklin classic ‘Chain Of Fools”. R&B/Soul singer Ledisi is on vocals, and she adds such flavor!

My fellow leftist, MonoNeon, dropped a new vid today appropriately titled, “Stank In New York.” Joined by legends Victor Wooten, Marcus Miller, and Derrick Hodge, MonoNeon goes off, as expected.

Today, we have another video from Five Watt World about the history of the Musicman bass. I love mini-docs like this. I always learn something new and it draws me closer to the instrument.

Victor Wooten never disappoints. Here he is at Yoshi’s in Oakland during the Bass Extremes tour. Vic performs a mind-blowing solo by layering parts on top of each other.

Victor Wooten and Steve Bailey are on the Bass Extremes tour, and in this video, we catch a glimpse of them in Hollywood, with Marcus Miller joining the party. Three Lords of The Low End on the same stage!

Marcus Miller is one of those bassists you know who is playing with the first note. In this video, Marcus takes on the Bob James and David Sanborn classic “Maputo” from the “Double Vision” album.

Today, we have a killer video from bassist Walter Barnes, Jr. Walter starts the solo by locking in the groove with the drummer, and then kicks it in overdrive! He even quotes the classic “Sir Duke” with some phat low notes thrown in.

Jeff Lorber has been one of my absolute favorites for years. He’s also had one my favorite bassists – Nate Phillips – in his band for many years. Here’s Lorber and his band performing “Night Sky” live, with Nate throwing it down on that Bossa bass.

Sharay Reed is movin’ and groovin’ with another video from his vault! Here we see and hear a young Sharay with the gospel group New Direction.

Here is another funky video from Juliaplaysgroove. I’m getting serious Louis Johnson vibes on this one! Julia comes out firing on a cut from The Weeknd’s newest album, “Dawn FM”. That Musicman is surely snapping in the mix!

Juliaplaysgroove is starting the new year off with a fresh, new video! In this clip, she takes on my favorite Thundercat tune, “Them Changes.” That Musicman Sterling sounds great, and all the basses are covered.
