Here are two amazing musicians in action, having a jam in the Epifani shop in Brooklyn: Edmar Castaneda on the harp and Matthew Garrison on his signature 5-string Fodera bass.

Here’s a live performance of Dave Holland with his Quintet at the Newport Jazz Festival, performing “Free for All”.

In this video Alvaro Martín spotlights a Columbian genre of music called Pasillo, which is typical of the country’s Andean region. The song is called “Espíritu Colombiano” (“Colombian Spirit”) and it was composed by Luis Eduardo a.k.a. “Lucho” Bermúdez.

Okay Stick fans… here’s one for you: Don Schiff jamming on the 8-string Stick Bass.

Here’s Tony Levin giving us a unique perspective of a Peter Gabriel concert in Lima, Peru. I love Tony’s background vocal appearance. Check out more from Tony Levin’s Road Diary.

I’ve always loved the jazz-fusion music that came out of the ’70s, and Return to Forever is no exception. Check out this video of the group playing Stanley Clarke’s composition Vulcan Worlds, and watch out for the split-screen solo exchange around the 4-minute-mark.

Here’s Marcus Miller with his band in Leverkusen in 2007, doing his version of Stevie Wonder’s “Higher Ground”.

Robin Koerts is perhaps most famous for his amusing parody videos of Mark King and Michael Manring, but as the following video shows he definitely knows how to play the bass himself.

Here’s Italian bassist Paola Venturini doing her version of Ave Maria by Bach/Gounod: For more of Paola Venturini check out her web site.

Here’s a cool trio, I wish there were more like these out there. Jorge Pardo on the flute is joined by Carles Benavent with his characteristic sound on the bass and Tino di Geraldo on the drums.

Here’s a nice little jam session between Marcus Miller and Hadrien Feraud at the Markbass booth during NAMM 2008.
