I've got two (although I'm sure there's more)... John Entwistle's video demonstrates his pick technique (as well as his various finger techniques), although this video is almost unwatchable due to the unbelievably irritating presence of Arlen Roth. The other one is Andy West's video, with him ripping it up on his old Modulus headless 6 with a pick. He demonstrates his picking technique quite well, although some of the music he plays on the video is kinda "out there"... the performance of "Dropped D" at the end makes the whole video worthwhile though.

The late Rick Danko made one, it's still available from Homespun on DVD.

Chris Squire did one for Starlicks.
it's pretty good- as well as his Rick he demonstrates his Tobias extended4 and 5, a Ranney 8string, a Mouradian, an Electra with built in effects, a Photon midi bass that he uses as a piccolo bass, and his effect pedalboard.

there's some live footage of Yes (the 80's fashions being rather uneasy on the eye though...)


also Phil Soussan did a series of vids for Starlicks- I've got the first one in which he demonstrates pick as well as fingerstyle techniques.

I saw that one... it's not bad, although he doesn't actually offer much "instruction". It's good to watch Chris play anytime though.
