Jerry Scheff with Tributosaurus: “Riders On The Storm” and “L.A. Woman” (Live)

Jerry Scheff with Tributosaurus: “Riders On The Storm” and “L.A. Woman” (Live)

Inspired by yesterday’s news of the Jerry Scheff‘s autobiography release, I got into watching a bunch of videos featuring the legendary bassist. Among them was this clip of Jerry with the band Tributosaurus performing the Doors’ classic, “Riders on the Storm”. This performance took place in 2007, at the Lakland 10th Anniversary concert in Chicago. Awseomeness. And, because it was...

Craig Butterfield: Biréli Lagrène’s “Made in France”

Craig Butterfield: Biréli Lagrène’s “Made in France”

Clear your schedule, because you’re going to want to hit the woodshed after watching this one. USC bass professor Craig Butterfield sent us his latest video of a multi-bass arrangement of Biréli Lagrène’s “Made in France”, which he overdubbed all the parts for by himself. Butterfield tackles the guitarist’s tune with a tight groove, beautiful harmonics, and some lightning fast...

Roberto Badoglio’s Re-Evaluation Time Band: Perfect Landing

Here’s a good one to chill you out: Robert Badoglio and his band playing “Perfect Landing” from his 2010 album Re-Evaluation Time. Sometimes in lead and sometimes laying down the groove, Badoglio’s playing and tight tone really add the character to the song. The clip comes from a live performance at Casa della Musica in Trieste on May 20, 2011....

Eric Czar: Trigger Fingers

Eric Czar: Trigger Fingers

Here’s an awesome video by Eric Czar for his song “Trigger Fingers”. Eric uses three basses (including his Adamovic signature 7-string) to fill out all the parts while using some tricky fingering techniques for a hypnotizing groove.

Sharay Reed: Chicago Gospel Musician Jam

Sharay Reed: Chicago Gospel Musician Jam

I stumbled across the video by random chance. And then I watched it about six times in a row. This is Sharay Reed, defining the phrase “laying it down”. I love how the audience reacts to Sharay’s lines too, especially around the 2-minute mark. There’s even guys with basses in the audience!

Rush: Medley – By-Tor And The Snow Dog, In The End, In The Mood, 2112 Finale – Live (1981)

Do you ever listen to music from your early years and get transformed back to that time? This video does that for me, and I’m betting it does for a lot of No Treble readers. This is Rush performing the medley of “By-Tor & the Snow Dog”, “In the End”, “In the Mood” and “2112 Finale”. This is of course...

Facebook friend Andy Irvine shared this video, and we have to pay it forward. Andy said, “One the baddest bassists ever on the scene, and a great band leader, taking his group to the TOP 10 many times!!

Here’s an incredible video of bassist Dane Alderson taking a solo on Jaco Pastorius’ “Liberty City” during a gig at the Ellington Jazz Club in Perth, Australia.

Here, the three legends are performing “Walkin'”, written by Richard Carpenter for Miles Davis. This clip comes from the World of Rhythm...
