The Jaco Pastorius Archive shared another incredible recording yesterday. Joni Mitchell’s “Shadows and Light” tour stop at the Greek Theatre in Los Angeles happened 45 years ago this month. This soundboard recording comes from the fourth of five concerts, and the second to last concert of the tour.

Madrid-based musician Tomás Merlo has a band called the Jaco Pastorius Legacy 5tet, with which he pays tribute to the late bass master. Merlo and his group have released a few videos, including this new take on the masterpiece “Continuum.”

The highly anticipated BEAT tour began on Thursday in San Jose, California. Here’s the quartet of Adrian Belew, Tony Levin, Steve Vai, and Danny Carey performing “Sleepless” from “Three of a Perfect Pair.”

I saw this video on Cort Guitar India’s Instagram and immediately looked for it on YouTube. Nilanjana Gosh Dastidar absolutely knocked me out with her performance of “Chromatic Fantasy.”

Leonid Vorobyev and his band Leonid & Friends have been on tour, so we haven’t seen many videos. That changed a few days ago when they dropped a new one. Here’s their cover of Chicago’s “Baby, What a Big Surprise.”

KNKX hosted Richard Bona in their Seattle studios in October 2023. They just released this video of his performance of “Calm Down.”

Following their epic cover of “The Camera Eye” during their performance in Kansas City, YYNOT and Tim Starace are back with another from “Moving Pictures.” Here’s the band performing “Witch Hunt.”

Luc Brame is involved in a new project called Ofa, and he sent us the first video they recorded. “Pas dans l’game” is a beautiful song with a powerful message.

Charles Berthoud did a fanastic collaboration with guitarist Seiji Igusa. The musicianship in this video is off the charts.

Christian Kussmann recently got a new Mattisson Series IV bass, and he got to try it out in a special place. He shared this video with us.

Lao Tizer assembled an impressive lineup for his new album, “Amplify.” Here’s “The Labyrinth,” with Anthony Crawford on bass.

Gilad Ephrat sent us another impressive video, where he pays tribute to François Rabbath, Renaud Garcia Fons, and Edgar Meyer.
