Here’s a guy making some uniquely great music all by himself on just an upright bass, in front of an audience member who appears neither very interested nor impressed.  (HT: Doug Hartline, my old pal from grade school!)

And also, in honor of Valentine’s Day, here’s the great Sassy herself, aka Sarah Vaughn, asking the musical question How Long Has This Been Goin’ On?  BTW, the rhythm section on this cut is killin’ it, led by Oscar Peterson on piano, and as long as we’re talking string bass, check out the extremely funky Ray Brown, especially at 2:02 as he runs up some kind of very cool scale.
