We recently shared the official video for “Love,” from Meshell Ndegeocello’s new album, “No More Water: The Gospel Of James Baldwin.” Now, we get to see a live performance. This took place at Jazz in Marciac 2024.

Charles Berthoud grabbed the fretless bass (and guitar and piano) for this beautiful version of Red Hot Chili Peppers’ “Californication.”

In this video, Ready Freddie Washington speaks on a multitude of subjects and also breaks down some of his most iconic bass lines.

Dave Weckl shared this video of him performing with John Patitucci and Joey Calderazzo in Cremona, Italy this year. The trio performed “Chickmonk,” which Patitucci wrote for Chick Corea and Thelonius Monk.

Here’s The Zawinul Syndicate performing at the North Sea Jazz Festival in 1997, with Richard Bona on bass. The other members of the band included Gary Poulson on guitar, Manolo Badrena on percussion, and Paco Sery on drums.

On November 22, 2023, Billy Cobham took the stage at the Monte-Carlo Jazz Festival. Cobham was joined by Gary Husband on keyboards, Rocco Zifarelli on guitar, and Christian Galvez on bass. Here’s their performance of “Crosswinds.”

Juliaplaysgroove adds plenty of extra funky goodness (and great lines) to Sabrina Carpenter’s “Espresso.”

Lake Street Dive’s new album, “Good Together,” is full of groovy tunes. Here’s the band performing “Help Is On The Way” at Racket.

Joe Osborn’s work on Simon & Garfunkel’s “The Only Living Boy In New York” is a masterpiece. Here’s Paul Simon performing the tune with the great Bakithi Kumalo, whose beautiful playing honors the original.

I’m digging Kinga Glyk’s new album, “Real Life,” so it was cool to see her drop this live video of her band performing “Unfollower.”

Kevin Reginald Cooke sent us a follow-up video for Mery’s Key’s new single, “My Own Way.” This one is the acoustic version, which Kevin says is “without all the bells and whistles of the studio production.” I love Kevin’s bass work on this version.

Charles Berthoud put together another creative and entertaining video. In this one, he takes on the theme to “Mission Impossible” in a way you’d expect from the bass guru.
