John Patitucci double bass workshop.

[ambient]

I'm a massive fan of Patitucci's playing, particularly his 6 string electric bass. Here's a great video of his double bass playing in a workshop.

I am also a big fan of JP, on both Instruments.
Not seen that Video before (Blimey, I just realised the Video is over 90 minutes long!).
Thanks for posting. (All those Basses!!. I would like to spend a night in there )

Funny enough I was listening to him yesterday, on the Dave Grusin 'West Story' DVD/album.
Absolutely superb playing and arranging all round.

Is that West Side Story available on a DVD. I want it now! I LOVE that cd.

Yes, 'Dave Grusin Presents West Side Story'.
I picked mine up in NY quite a while back, but it looks like you can get it in the UK.

Studio sessions and Interviews. All good stuff.
Certainly one of my favourite (big band) albums.
Everything is all on a ridiculously high level, playing, arranging, solos, singing and production.

Sorry for the Hijack. On the other hand, it is John Patitucci playing on and outstanding album.

Great find, thanks Ambient!

This was a great watch. Such an incredible musician. He inspired me to spend the day playing piano.
