"From Within"

This is absolutely incredible.

Michel Camilo, Horacio Hernandez, and Anthony Jackson.

Is it just me, or does that Fodera look HUGE on Anthony? Or is he just a tiny guy? haha

AJ is not very tall. I think he is 5'4 or something like that.

And the Fodera being a huge bass 36" make him look very small!

The song is great, I have it on the cale 54 dvd. I would buy a dvd from those 3 guys anytime!!

AJ is of one of the best bass player alive!

+1 on AJ's height. It's quite a shock to finally see an idol of yours within conversational distance and realize he's much shorter than you. Seeing the current Rudy's Music Store thread elsewhere on TB is melancholic to me since I met AJ there

In addtion, the AJ sig is a pretty big bass. It doesn't follow the current fashion of downsized bass bodies, and the neck is huge because it follows standard four string spacing even though it's a six. This makes for a WIDE neck !

That clip is fantastic! Love the finger-roll thing AJ does about 5 min. in.
Funny you should post this, I just ordered 3 Camilo CDs yesterday!

Why not, if you're gonna play sitting down.
