This is part two of a live video of Big Pump by Now vs. Now featuring Jason Lidner on piano, Mark Guiliana on drums and Panagiotis Andreou on bass. Check out the way Andreou incorporates konnakol into his bass solo (and the drum solo ain’t bad either!)

This video features a nice, melodic solo bass piece by Doug Ross called “What Fortune Awaits”.

Here’s a great video focusing on Thaddeus Tribbett in a live performance his brother, Gospel singer Tye Tribbett last year. Thaddeus has so much freedom in this context and it’s great to watch him play close up like this. He had a whole lot of fun in this performance. Thaddeus, also known as Terry, has appeared on several of Tye’s...

Live looping videos are a favorite around No Treble HQ. We usually find videos featuring of a solo bassist working alone with a looper pedal. Not the case with bassist Cico Cicognani, who performs with a trio with Pier Foschi and Mattia Dallara. Check out Mesh Machine:

Here’s a cool clip from the 2008 Detroit International Jazz Festival Artist-in-Residence program, with Christian McBride.

Always eclectic, Bill Laswell ventures into a very interesting musical place with the Bill Laswell Axiom Sound System Musical Freezone 06. In this performance, Laswell plays with Zakir Hussein (tablas), Ustad Sultan Khan (vocal, sarangui), DJ Disk, Karsh Kale (drums) and Nils Petter Molvaer (trumpet). This is part 4 of a 15-minute-jam.

Check out some great upright bass walking and soloing by Red Mitchell, playing “It Don’t Mean a Thing” along with trumpeter Clark Terry, live in 1988.

This video features a live performance of Cassandra Wilson with Lonnie Plaxico on bass, Brandon Ross on guitar and Jeffrey Haynes on percussion. They’re playing Astrud Gilberto’s song “Quiet Nights of Quiet Stars (Corcovado)”. Watch for Lonnie’s solo around the 2:20-minute-mark.

Check out Youtuber Allyourbassarebelong doing his bass arrangement of Queen’s classic “Bohemian Rhapsody”.

Here’s a great studio clip of the Beatles during the Revolver recording sessions, performing “And Your Bird Can Sing”. In this “take 2” recording, it is all about the bass (with light drums) and singing, with plenty of laughter. Thanks to Rachel, who shared this with us.

This is a live performance of Puerto Rican bassist Agustin Barreto‘s tune, Latina, from his album called Between My Walls. He is accompagnied by Abel Pabon on keyboard and Rey Monroig on drums.

I came across this video while browsing Youtube, but I didn’t pay attention to the title and couldn’t make out who the bassist was at first.
