Hey, isn't anyone going to complain that Entwhistle watches his fretting hand while he plays?
Great clip of one of my favorite bassists!

The thread itself is entirely subjective - I believe your interpretations of a "solo" are the same

Manring's solo w/ Loops arrangement of "Snakes Got Legs" from the 1998 Bass day video (drummers collective)
I wish I could find one of the Rip-roaring Linley Marthe solos from Zawinul Syndicate shows. but anything he does is great

How did you master the break? Are you using a loop pedal for the reverse section?

lol...absolutely!!!! amazing bass playing in Rattatouie!!! Abe jr is one of my Fav drummers too. keeping with the cartoon theme, don't know who is playing but the closing credit theme for "Blue's Clues" features a different soloist for most episodes. one in paticular, an episode called "Let's Plant" has a terrific fretless bassist doing a great solo. worth trying to find it for sure!
gene simmons, live:
best solo ever, hands down
That is kinda terrible, but to be fair, Gene wasnt actually trying to SOLO there, he was just playing a sequence of notes to get the crowd pumped up. He has stated on more than one occasion that he would do a real bass solo but he doesnt feel like it, and say's it's unnecessary.
Two things:
1) I'd nearly forgotten there ever was a Lord Tracy
2) I forgot how much of a MONSTER Barney was!!
Well I don't know about 'the best' but Jerry Jemmott packs more groove and funk into any four bars of music than any 29 virtuosos I can think of. There was a reason (a good one) why Jaco called himself a 'poor imitation of Jerry Jemmott'. Starting at about 1:30.

Willie Weeks groovin' on Voices Inside (Everything Is Everything). A great musical moment.
