The Most Watched Bass Videos (August 2024) – No Treble
You’ll find so much goodness in this month’s roundup of the top 10 videos on No Treble.
Kicking things off is “Ready” Freddie Washington, followed by an incredible live recording of Jaco Pastorius, Leland Sklar and The Section’s live performance in 1973, Marcus Miller with Herbie Hancock, Brad Williamson’s fretless “YYZ” cover, new music by Meshell Ndegeocello, and more.
In this video, Ready Freddie Washington speaks on a multitude of subjects and also breaks down some of his most iconic bass lines.
The Jaco Pastorius Archive dropped another live recording, and this one is special. Recorded in Italy in 1980, here’s Jaco performing his famous “Slang” solo. This one is different from a lot of versions you’ve heard.
Recorded live at the Morris Civic Auditorium in South Bend, Indiana, in 1973, here’s The Section’s complete performance.
Daft Punk’s “Get Lucky” is always a favorite tune for bassists to cover. Charles Berthoud does his thing with the bass line and a whole lot more.
Herbie Hancock recently performed at The Hollywood Bowl to commemorate the 50th anniversary of “Headhunters.” Here’s the band (with Marcus Miller) performing “Chameleon.”
Armed with his FM Esphera 6-string fretless bass, Brad Williamson plays through Rush’s “YYZ.”
Vulfpeck dropped their entire concert from France. Enjoy 1 hour and 48 minutes of Joe Dart and the gang.
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.
It is always exciting to hear new music from FORQ. They just dropped the video for “Song For Jim,” which is on their upcoming album, “Big Party.”
I discovered the band Eilidh today, and I was glad I did. They released videos from “Na Casa,” described as “a series of live intimate concerts in [the] ambiance of a very cool grandma’s house.” Here’s “No Hay Presupuesto.”
