Bassist Adam Nitti sent us this video of a live studio recording he did recently. The tune is “The Renaissance Man/Rebirth”, which appeared on Adam’s 2009 release, Liminal – an excellent album worth getting if you haven’t already. Things kick off with some excellent drums by Marcus Finnie and Adam’s bass, followed by the rest of the band which includes...

I’m not sure how I stumbled onto this video, but I’m sure glad I did. Gentle Giant’s “Free Hand” is already an awesome song, but add bassist Ray Shulman’s ballsy tone and energetic performance to the mix, and it’s a home run.

With all the talk of the new Black Sabbath album this year, I’ve been geeking out on tons of old videos of Geezer Butler and the band. Here’s one of my favorite songs, “Snowblind”, live in 1975. Geezer really rocks out on this one, white ’70s pants and all.

Bassist Mike Flynn sent us this unique video showcasing the bassist’s terrific fretless playing – and typical creativity in video and music production. We’ll let Mike set it up: “I took a chorus from a beautiful Meshell [Ndegeocello] tune called ‘Oysters’ from her album Weather and made a remix of it in Ableton Live. I also added a quote from...

Ryan Haines sent in this very cool video of an original song he co-wrote with singer-songwriter Jenna Jackley. “It’s a nice, bass oriented piece with a tuneful bass solo at about 2:50,” he shares. Indeed.

Damian Erskine sent this to us with the headline “Killer Groove.” Coming from Damian, that means something! Here’s a tricked out tune from bassist Munir Hossn and drummer Tedy Santana called “De Rua Pra Rua!” from an upcoming album entitled Tambour du Prince. The Brazilian duo are obviously having a blast while keeping an angular groove. Make sure you check...

It just keeps getting better and better. Last week, we shared a video of 90 bassists performing at once. It was the most watched video of the week. Then a guy named Will sent this along, which tipped the scales. He said approximately 100 bassists are performing at once on this stage. Now I’m awaiting an email where someone says...

The Bradetich Foundation shared this video of bassist Shannon Birchall performing a beautiful duet with pianist Jeremy Woolhouse, which was recorded last year at Baker Street Studios in Melbourne, Australia. Birchall provides an introspective arco melody to set the tone of the song before the duo share a flowing improvisation over the song’s changes. Perfect for a Sunday afternoon. Or...

Here’s a great performance of what turned out to be Weather Report’s last official lineup. The group is performing the tune “Where The Moon Goes”, originally recorded on the album, Procession. Victor Bailey is laying down the groove and the song features drummer Omar Hakim quite heavily (we’re okay with that.)

Maree Erkkila Palma suggested we check out some videos by Brazilian bassist Valter Kabas, and we’re glad she did. Here’s a great Funk/Jazz groove he put up that is full of tasty licks and delicious tone.

Juan Alderete shared this on his Facebook page a while back, saying only “this leaves me speechless.” I feel about the same way. Filmed in Montreux in 1976, this clip captures the kind of energy you just don’t see in every band. Alphonso Johnson holds down the low end with tight yet lyrical playing before taking a tasty solo at...

Szoke Richard shared this video, saying “no treble at all”. Indeed. And we love it. 90 bass orchestra!
