Back on topic, I love Scott devine's lessons- he always breaks down concepts I'm having trouble with so that I can really understand then. Marlowe DK is great as well, I've learned a lot from watching both of them.
If anyone is in to avant-garde metal, CHaoth (not sure how he stylizes it) has a video up of him playing 'Words' off his band's (Unexpect) newest album. Excellent playing and musicianship.
Oh, and can I nominate myself?  (shameless plug ahead) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Bs3MFbk52w

I also like CocosBassment. Here he kills a Sekou Bunch tune that I've always loved. http://youtu.be/igPeutrJ3LI |

The writer was also a very good friend of Jaco. Ralph is a very good bassist. And at a very young age, but Jaco was innovative. Some say Jaco never came in with his own bass but with a P bass. So what I am saying I would like the family to comfirm or those who hung out with Jaco. But it does make a good story.
Also I would like to ad that it wouldn't surprise me if true but Jaco must had known it would be his voice as he played it like no other.

He can play other styles too! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cn83orYLwPo

I would not be surprised. He was such character.... Some people say that's the bogus story. But, Ralphe is really nice guy. I don't think he would lie something just to make himself important, when the whole story can be checked from multiple sources.
We all need kick in the guts to move on in life....

He's the only person on Youtube who can play some Symphony X songs.
Also, anyone check out Andy Irvine? |
